@gphy4me @PaulVangeog @RebelGeo@SusanCaldis @SusanJPike @josephkerski@jeandtong Wonder if they would hire non-chemist to teach chemistry, or non-math to teach the math program? Programs need to respect training & educational background of those who are educating pre-service teachers! Geo is everywhere but esp in the heart and mind of a career geo teacher!

This placemat idea was a big topic of discussion in groups at destreaming meeting today. We wondered about cross curricular potential of common question words. The example in this post is a good starting point! @WhiteRoomRadio @michmaniscalco @MrBBeard
Trying to make it easier for my GCSE classes to support themselves... not used a 'literacy mat' for a while but I'm hoping this might help my students.... thanks for the inspiration (a long time ago) @MrGGalloway@MissdeBechi#GeographyTeacher
For geography classes @Gapminder is a great go to for lessons on a variety of topics. Makes stats accessible and visual for students (and teachers π)
Attention teachers! We have published the slides for our global warming in the oceans lesson, so you can easily correct this misconception in your classroom. Use freely, and help share with others! https://t.co/Dq2G80VpPb
Teaching a unit on the Tundra? This is a great polar bear tracker site. Choose a bear to track or follow them all. Engaging for students, helps to introduce ideas of conservation or impact of climate change on environment.

When many hands make light work- CGC1 collaborating on climate graphs- give them one graph, and let them work together to figure out how to read it and try and guess the location/region.
