How and why are different areas of the world faced with different challenges? Big Picture Lines of Enquiry: LC3 allows students to develop their knowledge and understanding of extreme environments across the globe which links closely with the new GCSE specification. Throughout this learning cycle, there will be opportunities for students to develop their case study knowledge and improve on-going map skills from previous learning cycles. Students will begin by looking at what extreme environments are and where they are located around the world. They will then focus on the characteristics of desert environments, including climate, the way that plants and animals are adapted to survive there and the impacts that human activity has on desert environments. Finally, they will focus on Antarctica, firstly looking at the physical features and climate of Antarctica, before looking at the impact that extreme tourism is having there. Week 1 What are the world s extreme environments and where are they located? Week 2 What are the key characteristics of a desert biome? Week 3 How does human activity impact deserts? Week 4 What are the key characteristics of Antarctica? Week 5 Is it possible for extreme tourism to be sustainable?
