Pop-up river drainage basin

Download template

This excellent idea of labelling a pop-up drainage basin is a great way of bringing the topic alive. The children have to label 8 parts on the drainage basin and it can be completed in class or as homework. 

Top teaching tip - make 3 or 4  of these drainage basins and stick them together to make an island which could be part of a display in the classroom plus a useful cheap tool for explaining what watersheds are.

Continuing with the pop up theme, we have made this model to help pupils understand the difference between densely populated and sparsely populated. There are two templates, the first which is the pop up part, this is best printed on to card. We recommend 170 gsm or thereabouts. The second template, whch is best printed on to paper, is the worksheet which the pupils stick in their book.

​

Top making tip:

For the pop up to work, the pupils must make sure the blue line down the middle of the page is right in the fold of the book.

    Great on a ChromeBook.

    Technology has been widely adopted in schools but the provision of teaching resources available to make full use of these resources has failed to keep up. We aim to create a wide range of teaching materials that support the teaching and learning of geography in the classrooms with the use of technology.
