This unit is designed to develop student skills in preparation for GCSE Geography (most suitable for Year 9 but could be taught in Year 8). Kenya is used as place for students to explore and enquire, as most students will have a limited awareness of Kenya.

Recommended time on the article is 4-5 ICT lessons and 2-3 homework’s. Lessons are designed for 50 minutes to 1 hour of teaching. Total lesson time approximately 15 lessons.

All lessons have a starter and lesson aim. All PowerPoints in the same signature style.
