@GeogChat I think that the use off 'Do Nows' and retrieval practice at the start of each lesson helps to support powerful knowledge and key concepts well.
@Geo_Dougie @sarahlarsen74@GeogChat There can be as many as you'd like. The best way that I think of it is 'What do I want my yr7 to be able to do at the end of the year?'. I normally pick two routes (content and knowledge) and plan backwards from there.
@GeogChat Not at all. We build on students' everyday knowledge by building on their schemas of their everyday knowledge and teaching through stories to make them stick.
@GeogChat@RichardBustin As well as understanding people and places (knowledge), we should also be encouraging students to ask questions, evaluate decisions and make enquiries (skills)
@lcgeography Great picture, we use this one when teaching erosion (we live local!)
Did you know that there used to be a town before Happisburgh that has been eroded away called Whimpwell! Also Shipdham was a medieval town out before Cromer, but that's gone too! https://t.co/bLTqhr5kha
@missbiology8 Maybe a lesson title about whether we should buy local food or not? Spend the lesson weighing up the pros and cons of buying food from abroad and locally and then get them to make a decision?
Good luck! π₯³
