Hey there, Geography teachers! It's that time of the week when we dive into some exciting Geogra3 goodness. Whether you're swamped with classes, marking mocks, or just looking to spice up your lessons, we've got you covered.
Ever stumbled upon a gem like this map and thought, "This is perfect for my students!" Well, that's exactly how I felt when I came across this beauty. It took me back to when I used to teach the Edexcel spec, where I used it to help my students understand the distribution of rock types across the British Isles.
Who can resist the charm of colouring in and exploring maps? Head over to the British Geological Survey website and grab your free copy. It's an engaging way to teach rock types, and your students will love it.
Now, Bolivia might not be the first country that comes to mind when you think of Geography case studies, but here's a fantastic resource that might change your perspective. These lessons are all about sustainable development and the valuable lessons Bolivia has to offer.
Thanks to a project funded by the RGS-IBG Innovative Teaching Grant, they've got three comprehensive lessons for you. Each lesson comes with a PowerPoint, video clips of interviews, and some hands-on activities. But what truly caught my eye were the StoryMaps – they're engaging and educational. Dive into the world of Bolivia and see what lessons you can weave into your curriculum.
As busy teachers, it's not often we get to see our colleagues shine outside of the classroom. But today, I want to spotlight a former colleague and friend, Eve. She's not just an amazing geography teacher; she's also creating something quite extraordinary – "Woven by Eve."
Eve creates beautiful hand-woven landscapes using sustainably sourced wool and materials. It's a unique venture that showcases her talent and creativity. If you're already thinking about Christmas presents (or maybe just treating yourself), check out her website. And if you're into the 'gram, give her a follow on Instagram to stay updated with her stunning creations.
I love celebrating teachers who have exciting lives outside of the classroom, so if you or a colleague are up to something extraordinary, hit reply and share the story with me. Let's connect and give them the shoutout they deserve!
That's a wrap for this week's Geogra3 blog. Happy teaching, and stay inspired!
PS - I love nothing more than supporting Geography teachers as we are a pretty awesome bunch.
