What is weather and how does it affect people?Do now:
Using the shapes below, create a sketch map of the UK. You may have to rotate them and resize.

What is the climate like on the African continent?Starter challenges:

Me. What I want to be doing, What I usually end up doing these days as SLT but still firmly in the classroom and grappling with curriculum changes and budget constraints. 7
Teaching Standard 4:
To promote intellectual curiosity and a love of learning@davidErogers
If we are not doing this as geographers whats the point?8
Teaching standard 5:
Knowing what your students need to know
Knowing where each student is
Using this knowledge to get them to where they should be@davidErogers
If we are not doing this as geographers whats the point?9

A high-quality geography education should inspire in pupils a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives.

are competent in the geographical skills needed to: collect, analyse and communicate with a range of data gathered through experiences of fieldwork that deepen their understanding of geographical processes interpret a range of sources of geographical information, including maps, diagrams, globes, aerial photographs and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) communicate geographical information in a variety of ways, including through maps, numerical and quantitative skills and writing at length.

Based on the 2015 draft GCSE criteria. Applicable to KS3 as well as KS4, especially the emphasis on UK / places.S.E.E.P = social, economic, environmental, political. The idea is that slide 1 is the coloured template wheel. Slide 2 is printed on tracing paper and attached as an overlay. Students then mark on the tracing paper what score they are at different stages of the year using the scale. Font = OpenDyslexic14

Do we encourage young people to make mistakes? How could we be better?@davidErogers
Do we give too much feedback to students?
Is it the right type?
Is it useful?@davidErogers
Learning Goal SheetsFFTTeacher FeedbackTypeFrequencyWhat does it look like?Light touchOnce every 4 lessons to show that work has been seen and to identify obvious communication errors. Check the quality of presentation.Green Pen:Pick up obvious errors; check presentation; level of work.S (x3 or 5): you have spelt the word wrong and need to re-write 3 time (if it is an unfamiliar word) or 5 times (if it is a familiar word).P: you have missed out or used a punctuation mark incorrectly.G: your sentence does not make sense / it has not been written correctly.Feedback SheetOnce per progress check. This is a chance for students to reflect on their progress since the last Progress Check.Either: Feedback Sheets stuck inside the front cover of the exercise book filled out.or:Feedback Stamp used FFT (Feed forward time)After an assessment, at least once per progress check. This allows students time to engage with your feedback.Students will have responded to comments or made corrections / redrafted. Identify these by using Progress Purple pens / highlighter / stickers.Verbal markingOn-going. This form of feedback should be a feature of every lesson.An abbreviation to show that assessment took place or feedback was given during the lesson. Student marking in Red pen. VF: verbal feedback - green stamp PA: peer assessment SA: self- assessment LM: live whole class marking TA: target achieved I: independent work

Your are not here merely to make a living. You are here to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, and with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget this errand. Woodrow Wilson.@davidErogers
Every decision you make, from what you eat to what you do with your time tonight, turns you into who you are tomorrow, and the day after that. Look at who you want to be, and start sculpting yourself into that person. You may not get exactly where you thought you'd be, but you will be doing things that suit you in a profession you believe in. Don't let life randomly kick you into the adult you don't want to become.Commander Chris Hadfield@davidErogers
