| Subject: Geography – Physical – Paper 1 |
| Task: |
| Work through the booklet, focus on sketching the plate boundaries and fold mountains, then answer the questions on the case studies. |
| Why is this required for September? |
| You have not studied tectonics since Year 8 as it is not in the GCSE course. You need to remind yourself of the basics of the structure of the earth and the impacts that tectonic plate movement has. |
| What Assessment/Feedback should you expect? |
| There will be a class discussion on each of the key areas covered in the booklet and an opportunity for you to ask questions about the causes and impacts of tectonic hazards. |
| Time this task (s) should take: |
| Minimum 3 hours. Little and often is the key to learning important details. Answer all of the questions in detail. |

| Research a tectonic disaster that has occurred this year. Include the cause, effect and response to the disaster. |
| How will this link to independent study tasks in September? |
| Each week you will be given a section of an absolute to learn, to complete a follow-up quiz.
Each of your physical geography booklets has QR codes for wider reading that you will complete each week as a significant proportion of the a level is marked on your wider geographical understanding. |
| Resources needed for September:
You will need a level arch folder and lined paper. This will need dividing into 4 subtopics:
Tectonic processes and hazards Coastal landscapes and change Water cycle and water insecurity Carbon cycle and energy security
You will need a separate folder for the human geography topics.
