🌍 The Natural World
In this reading-based lesson, Year 10 students present Geography fact files about four natural wonders: the Amazon Rainforest (largest, most diverse), the Sahara Desert (largest hot desert, hottest), Mount Everest (highest, most dangerous), and the Great Barrier Reef (largest reef, most beautiful but most fragile). Each text is rich with superlatives and comparatives in context. Students review superlative formation (short, long, irregular), learn the 'one of the + superlative + plural' pattern, and practise geography vocabulary. Includes a record-matching game, quiz, fill-in-the-blanks, and a writing task to create their own fact file.
