We had a fab day at the @SAGTeach conference. Thanks to all the teachers who took part in our Steps and Slopes workshops to look at the effects of terracing on soil erosion and hydrographs. #TerraSAge @EarthSciStA @UniofNewcastle @GeoTimKinnaird @aayushsr2210

In the new year, the #nationalgeography class turns its attention to rural and urban issues. This year we are combing our developing world urban / rural into a case study on India. Causes and Impact of farmer debt is one of the issues we look at.
Farmers take the fatal route to escape indebtedness but the privileged rich defaulters get a bail out in the form of write-offs and haircuts ..

Nat 5 Geographers worked on their literacy and teamwork skills whilst developing their knowledge of developments that have been made within farming in Kerala🇮🇳 A carrousel activity where pupils had to complete a small close reading on each development & pick out key info!
