Everything a teacher needs to teach Geography for 6th Class this year.
The whole books come with the course, in each class's Resources.
Every lesson is mapped to the specification. This course teaches 11 of the 11 outcomes for this class.
Tap any outcome to read it. The coloured ones are taught in this course. The curriculum does not include official reference codes for individual learning outcomes, so we have assigned a code scheme to make it easier to identify and track coverage.
36 lessons in 6 modules. The lesson marked Sample opens in full.
The services outcome at its fullest: where a council's money comes from and who decides how it is spent, how far a ten-minute walk reaches and for whom it is harder, what community groups do that nobody else does, and who gets a say when something new is built. The module closes on sustainable living: practices that pass one test and fail another, and an action the class can measure.
The resources outcome at its fullest verb, evaluate. Each lesson takes one way water, land, food or transport is managed in or near the class's own place, sets the evidence beside it, and asks who gains, who loses and what would be better: homes on fields or in empty buildings, what the county grows, whether the bus is a real choice, where waste water goes, where new trees would do most good, and a greenway weighed from every side.
The physical processes outcome at its fullest: how old Ireland's ground is and which features formed fast or slowly, the wearing away and piling up the class can find near its own gate, the coast and what people do about it, floods and the choice between walls and room for the river, why the tide rises so much further in some places, and a whole landscape read for the processes that made it.
Where Ireland's electricity comes from and what the island must buy in to make it, whether it can keep building data centres when its supply of electricity is limited, and what happened to the work and the land of the Midlands when peat could no longer be cut for power. Then where Ireland's people have moved to live since 1961, who has come to live in Ireland, and why St Patrick's Day is marked so far from Ireland.
The solar-system outcome at its fullest: the pattern in the planets' days and years, why some tides are bigger than others, why an eclipse of the sun is rare, how storms on the sun reach the Earth, whether people could ever live on Mars, and how people learned to predict a comet's return. Each lesson works from real figures, photographs or records, and asks what the evidence shows and what it cannot.
The environmental-change outcome and the issues outcome together at their fullest. Each lesson takes a real change to a natural environment in Europe or the wider world, weighs the evidence for what caused it and what has been done, and ends with a conclusion the class can defend. It opens with the rice terraces the Ifugao people built in the mountains of the Philippines.
