Literacy tasks

You have literacy tasks that need to be completed over the course of the school year. There is no set order to complete these.

Task 1

Create a crossword using any keywords from the topics you have studied in KS3. This can be shared with another member of the class to complete.

Task 2

Literacy mats are a useful way to students understand how to use keywords in their work and how to structure their writing. Create a literacy mat for a year 7 student starting Geography. It needs to include Geography keywords, sentence starters, connectives and key phrases. It should also include paragraph and essay structuring, as well as command words. This needs to fit on one side of A4 paper and should be split into separate boxes. Research online for some examples to help you get started.

Task 3

Create a revision guide for one of the topics you have studied in year 9 Geography. This needs to have labelled diagrams and emphasise keywords.
