BBC Would-You-Rather FUN GEOGRAPHY ACTIVITY! #7



My students absolutely love this activity and cannot wait to do the next one (but I spread them out during the school year).

The worksheet has 3 scenarios of life around the globe. Students circle one, then you show the class the BBC video clips associated with each scenario. Students then fill out information about the location of the clip and two sentence frames. They usually need some assistance identifying the continent, country and climate zone, so consider this when teaching your lesson.

The BBC clips are not included, but each worksheet has copies of where to find the links on YouTube (there are 5 versions of the worksheet, making 15 total scenarios). 1 worksheet with 3 scenarios and associated video clips can easily take 30 minutes. Video clips are anywhere from 2-7 minutes in length.

This worksheet is designed for middle school, but can be easily modified to fit any grade level.
