This 2-3 hour lesson teaches pupils about the importance of the rainforest. Students learn why tropical forests are being removed, despite them being such a precious resource both locally and globally. In the first task pupils use dual coding to mind map and categorise the importance of the forest. Satellite images are used to highlight global forest loss hot spots. Students then improve their numerical skills by comparing forest loss of the Brazilian and Non-Brazilian Amazon. A writing frame is provided here to support weaker pupils. Source images are used to stimulate discussion, as to why forest is being removed. Pupils then undertake a guided reading exercise, before finally completing a card sort task.
Workbook pintables are provided which follow the PowerPoint lesson. Multiple choice checking for understanding slides are included, as well as links and videos to allow pupils to secure their learning at home.
