The overall view

Due to the age of the children the lessons need to be kept simple, interactive and engaging. This is important, as the children must be engaged to create a desire to learn in the subject and not discourage them from further study. Due to time constraints, as the school only has one geography lesson per week, I have tried to fit all the QCA recommended scheme of work into the 6 lesson plans that follow.

In the lessons, focus will be to study settlements looking at different types of settlements, why settlements grew up where they did and the sorts of shapes different settlements make. Will also see how they change over time and the effects these changes have on different groups of people. Also, we will learn about the benefits and problems which different people experience living in a large settlement, and the different types of land use within a large settlement. Lastly, we will learn what a settlement hierarchy is and where and why people go shopping where they do.

Teacher’s notes: Lesson 2

Settlement: a place where people live.

Settlement types: city, town, village, hamlet.

Settlement function: the reason why a settlement was first built.

Settlement site: the place where a settlement first grew up.

Reference for wordsheet (worksheet 2.2):

Reference for wordsearch (worksheet 2.1):

The describing game: A pupil is to stand facing the class. The teacher writes a word on the board and one pupil at a time attempts to describe the word in one sentence without using the word itself. The pupil that gives a description which leads to the correct answer replaces the pupil at the front of the class and the process is repeated.

Words for the describing game: settlement, function, site, city, market town, river.

2.1: What is a settlement and what kinds of functions can a settlement have?

A settlement is a place where people live. For a settlement to grow up it had to have a particular use. This use is known as the settlement function. Different settlements have different functions, including industrial towns, holiday resorts, ports and market towns.

Activity

Complete the following definitions by linking (with a straight line) the beginnings on the left with the endings on the right. Then find the definitions in the wordsearch below.

Settlement where goods are manufactured in industrial towns

Function goods that are sent overseas

Market town the reason why a town was first built

Industrial town a place where people go on holiday

Factories a place where people make things

Port a place where people buy and sell things

Imports a place where goods are brought in and out of a country

Exports something people do in their leisure time

Resort a place where people live

Holiday goods that are brought into the country

[pic]The word ‘site’ means the place where a settlement – like a town or village - grew up. Early settlers chose a site if it had natural advantages such as:

• being near to a water supply to use for drinking, cooking and washing

• having sources of raw materials such as wood, clay and tin

• having flat, fertile land for growing crops and building houses

• being in a place which was easy to defend

• being sheltered from wind and rain

• being close to other settlements to make it easy to trade goods

Lesson 4: Teacher’s notes

School hierarchy: The headmaster is the very important because they make decisions concerning how to run the school. The deputy head are also important as they are second in command. The teachers are all important as they help pupils learn, and there are a lot more of them than there are head teachers. There are hundreds of pupils in a school and they have the least responsibility.

Key sentences

‘The larger the settlement is, the further it is away from a settlement of the same size’

‘The larger a settlement is, the fewer there are of them’

‘Larger settlements will have more services’

Service: something set up to meet people’s needs, e.g. a shop, school or post office.

The describing game: A pupil is to stand facing the class. The teacher writes a word on the board and one pupil at a time attempts to describe the word in one sentence without using the word itself. The pupil that gives a description which leads to the correct answer replaces the pupil at the front of the class and the process is repeated.

6.1: Land use in urban areas

Land use describes what the land is used for. Land use patterns change as you move away from the city centre. The different land uses make up a land use pattern. These patterns can be represented in a land use model.

1. Use the words from the box below to fill in the blanks in the paragraph.

| Suburbs Central business district Industry |

|Urban land use model Inner city Countryside |

|Residential Commerce Open space |

In the centre of the city is the C B D .The second zone of land use is the I C . The next zones of land use are the inner and outer S . Outside the city limits is the C . The main functions of a city are C , I , R and O S . These functions are found in different land use zones. An U L U M can be used to represent the different zones.

2. Unscramble the words below to fill in the adjacent boxes. Then copy the letters in the numbered cells to the cells with the same number at the bottom of the page.

Look at the photographs below. Each photograph shows a different land use zone. Decide which photograph shows which land use zone and write it in the space provided. Think about the characteristics of each zone and write down your answer in the box. Colour in the land use model at the bottom of the page using a different colour for each zone. Decide which photograph corresponds with each zone of the model. Colour in the matching ‘characteristics’ box using the same colour.

Shopping hierarchy:

Large out-of-town shopping centres

Town centre shopping centres

Shopping precincts in suburbs

Small local shops

Things bought from a shopping centre are called comparison goods: relatively expensive things that people like to have a choice of before they buy, like washing machines or clothes

Things bought from a local shop are called convenience goods: things that people need everyday, like milk or newspapers.
