What to teach? What places, themes and issues will you include your new KS3 curriculum? What makes something geographically ‘significant’? The scale? Geographical extent/number affected? If it is new? Enduring? Threatened? Its importance for the future? Who’s future? Its typicality? Uniqueness? Fragility? Significance to you? Your learners? The world?

A teacher’s toolkit for KS3 Places Into Africa: (Emma Cook) Rise and rise of China (Nicole Lyons) British or European? (Jenny Brassington) Themes Water works (Sarah Watts) 2012 Olympics (Andy Roberts) Valentine’s roses (Louise Ellis) Your views on landscapes (Alan Parkinson) Issues Climate change (Nicky Reckless) UK population change (John Widdowson) Future floods (Kathryn Stephenson)

Selecting and justifying content Cartoon removed for copyright reasons Teacher: “Population Blah.. Blah.. Blah..” Student: “Did you know... 10,000,000 babies have been born while you’ve been talking Sir?”

Planning using concepts

Framing questions for enquiry Do we have equal rights to resources? British or European? Where does China go from here? What difference can we make to the climate? Is the Olympics the best way to regenerate East London? Why is the population of the UK changing? Should I buy a Valentine’s rose? How are our lives connected with Africa? What are your views on landscapes? How can geographers make a difference?

A teacher’s toolkit for KS3 Places Into Africa: how are our lives connected to Africa? Rise and rise of China: where does China go from here? British or European: who do you think you are? Themes Water works: do we have equal rights to resources? Faster, higher, stronger: are the Olympics the best way to regenerate East London? A thorny issue: would you buy a Valentine’s rose? Look at it this way: what are your views on landscapes? Issues Change the world: what difference can we make to climate? Moving stories: why is the UK’s population changing? Future floods: can geographers make a difference?

Using geographical pedagogy Make it personal Ask the right questions Address contentious issues Detect bias in different media Focus on real world place studies Learn through talk

Some Toolkit titles explored

Author workshops A chance to explore how authors: have shaped their content used concepts and processes made their pedagogy explicit Introducing Andy Roberts (Olympics) Nicole Lyon (China) Jenny Brassington (British or European) and not forgetting John Widdowson (migration)

Session plenary What are the outcomes from this session? What have we decided about key planning processes? What are our next steps?
