Worth a watch for @Edexcel_Geog B students, learning about Tropical storms - year 11 @lgs_news geographers: we talked about storm surges when we did this topic in the summer term of year 10, ahead of hurricane season now

@LangleyGS_Tech @Jigsaw24Edu Getting used to the power of @SaharaAV Clevertouch boards combined with Apple tech, 4 Year 13 @Edexcel_Geog synoptic essays questions on the arctic. 4 different ways of using apps to show the essay plans. 4 plans shared with students through QR code

@lgs_news and from the top of the Perlan Obversation deck- where the hot water is stored for the city of Reykjavík

@lgs_news last day, a bit of time to explore Reykjavík: starting with the Hallgrimskirja to reflect on how the physical geography has inspired architecture and reflect on the impact of the Reformation in shaping the Lutheran influence on culture

@lgs_news We’ve just finished at Pingvellir, the heart of ‘power’ in Iceland- the natural amphitheatre physics of the rifting plate boundary ideal for the worlds oldest democratic parliament, alongside the geothermal power that could transform global energy geopolitics

@lgs_news from the top of Kerid Crater- a great opportunity to discuss the interaction of large scale, long-term tectonic processes, all the way down to micro scale short term rock breakdown - leaving the discussion question: why is our landscape not flat?

@lgs_news some beautiful photos of the scenery along the coast on Tuesday afternoon taken by @Monique93633251

@lgs_news It’s Weds morning- after last nights Hamburgers & late night swimming: lots of tired faces! We’ve arrived at Nesjavellir geothermal power station- building on our Fracking work in Y8: thinking about the geopolitical shift that comes from decoupling from fossil fuels

@lgs_news from Tuesday afternoon, stunning views of Iceland’s most important volcanoes and interactive education at The Lava Centre about the hotspots/mantle plume that fuels the energy beneath the island

From ⁦@JogwithAplin⁩ : we’ve been climbing up the Skógafoss waterfall, surprisingly tough given the icy conditions, but an amazing view of the 5km raised beach out to the coast ⁦@lgs_news⁩

⁦@LGS_news⁩ ⁦@LangleyGS_Tech⁩ - Some lovely photos by Saood of Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss on the #Iceland South Shore #iphonephotography

⁦@Lgs_news⁩ beautiful early morning for the geographers as we head for the South Shore- lovely photos here from Gaurav

@lgs_news 1st stop on the Reykanes peninsular, the spectacular @thelavatunnel - volcanic flows eroding their own lava tubes, cold bacteria, oxidation, snow and ice causing spectacular rock breakdown formations – at Iceland

@lgs_news year 9 geographers have arrived safely in Reykjavik – at Iceland

@LGs_news LGS Geographers are all through security, boarding and heading off to Belfast

@SloughTSA @lcll_ioe the beauty of this programme is creating time for talented Slough teachers to design just one small scale way to change how they differentiate in their classrooms and collect evidence of whether it worked- Think: #SloughChildrenCan

@SloughTSA @lgs_news @lcll_ioe We’re working this afternoon supporting Slough RQTs to develop Evidence-Informed Practice - first task, reporting back on the mini investigations they’ve tried about Pupil Voice since October

@SloughTSA Slightly nervously starting @Edexcel_Geog Carbon cycles today. Going to send year 13 on a scavenger hunt to find pieces of carbon around the school site, then exploring the cycle, and a bit of thinking towards the end to help with articulation

@lgs_news @Jigsaw24Edu @SloughTSA making effective use of iPad markup tools to annotate @Edexcel_Geog coastal processes at Chewton Bunny - we use ‘6 layers of phys Geog’ to develop analysis - thinking hard & creativity help = long term memory retention #fieldworkfriday

@SloughTSA Overcoming our distance inland, yr11 @lgs_news have headed to Christchurch bay to revise @Edexcel_Geog coastal and rural geography - starting with an @OSleisure spatial thinking quiz (aka escaping the rain)
