Tweet Treats #12
This is the twelfth collection of useful tweets relating to #geography and #geographyteachers. The world of Twitter can be a busy place so I’ve pulled together some tweet treats from the last week that are worth having a look at. Tweets are in no particular order.
A useful strategy for re-visting learning. This example is for RE but could be easily adapted for geography. Miss Lyons has been kind enough to share this resource on Internet Geography.
Can’t remember who posted this resource but thank you very much for doing so! Some students were in an exam today, this activity was a great way to catch up on what we had learned about the final topic before picking it back up again. #edutwitter #Retrieval #GCSERE pic.twitter.com/QmXKcqmv2O

A great article on how arid environments are taught by David Preece. Well worth a read!

Festive origami with OS maps anyone?
Earlier I posted a photo of an origami Christmas tree using old map extracts – @GeoBlogs has already sorted some super easy instructions. Thanks Alan 😊

These summary grids look great!
I ❤️ trying new things. Y10 and 8 have been busy creating summary grids on identified misconceptions. This resulted in fantastic results with 5 year 8s gaining 100% in their quiz 😁. Future Geographers 🌍 #geographyteacher #geography #revision pic.twitter.com/xCDklNTg5q

We’re loving this independent study guide for a-level students.

Some of my year 12’s a really struggling with the idea of consolidating on their learning as we go so I have created this to help them.I think it is pretty straight forward and clear but feedback welcome. pic.twitter.com/6ff8S7oZd9

These knowledge test retention resources look superb.
I’ve changed the format of our knowledge tests that we use regularly in lesson as extended starters. Tests knowledge retention and produces ideal revision sheets for students! Blue pen and feedback in lesson to minimise written feedback #geographyteacher pic.twitter.com/GqLiSyKY37

Really useful resources for developing skills of evaluation here.
