Geography animations
These animations and illustrated accompanying worksheets teach secondary students about key CLIL topics in geography: acid rain, the movement of the sea, the water cycle and secondary economic activity.
This section includes PowerPoint presentations – ideal for an interactive whiteboard or computer – featuring short, clear geography animations.
Along with each presentation, subscribers can download a worksheet and teacher’s notes with language support activities and ideas for whole class and group activities.
Read these PowerPoint technical hints and tips to help you use the presentations effectively.
Inside Geography animations
Sea action
Teach students how load is carried along the sea shore by a process called ‘longshore drift’.
