Synopsis

A variety of tasks allow you to:
· Engage students with exciting visual content, real-world emphasis, fresh case studies and country profiles with regular online updates from the Geography Association.
· Monitor student growth with ‘Check Your Progress’ exercises and prepare your class for KS4 with ‘Bridge to GCSE’ activities written by examiners.

Pupil book enquiries are ‘How’ and ‘Why’ questions consisting of one overarching investigative question and a series of sub questions.

Enquiries are supported by teacher resources that provide a clear steer in terms of approaches to learning and teaching and the generation of meaningful outcomes. These outcomes will be easily cross referenced to any national assessment requirements.

This series is endorsed by the Geographical Association.

· samples of the breadth studies at Key Stage 3
· key processes in both physical and human geography
· integration of higher order thinking skills to exemplify
that the world is a complex and interconnected place
