Hello Y8!
Here are some questions to help you structure the work on forced migration for that you are completing for Mr Dada…
(1) Where is the counrty you are reporting on? ( a map would be good here!)
(2) What is causing the migration in this place - who is involved?
(3) What are the effects of the migration?
(4) What do you think will happen in the future?
If you have any problems, or would like someone to check your work, make sure you come and see Mr Dada or Mr Renshaw.

Hello Y8, for those of you in Mr Dada’s classes… your task is to create an image montage about the forced migration in Uganda.
You can select up to a maximum of 10 image.
Write a short commentary to accompany your montage that explains why you selected the images you chose
Search the following websites for images:
www.google.com (image search)

These keywords could help start you off:

How are peoples’ wishes different? Do they change depending on where you live in the country? Does age or gender matter? What do you want? What would you change? What is acceptable and what is unacceptable?
A team of geographers aim to find some basic patterns to show what people dream for and where. It will also discover what you think is most unacceptable in life and if some parts of the country think that kissing in public is more acceptable than others….
You must be in Britain and in KS3 (Years 7, 8 or 9) to take part in this research. The data collected will end up playing a part on some of your geography lessons!

Hello Y8! In class this week we looked at how the chain of production can be broken. The example we used was the 2001 strike in the Kukdong factory in Mexico. If you would like to read more about this strike action and what has happened since, follow this link.
Keep an eye on the blog as there will be a living geography post comming your way on this topic very soon!

Hello Y8! As part of your investigation into the causes and effects of refugee movement in different parts of the world, some classes thought it would be a good idea if we created a post that had useful weblinks. If you find a website of use, register with wordpress and post a comment on this entry with a link to the page you want to share.

Greetings Y8! Today we had a rather splendid discussion about migration! The first job was to identify what migration is and what push and pull factors are… easy! We then had a much more interesting discussion about the difference between an asylum seekers, refugee’s and illegal immigrants. Some of you wanted the link to the man in the chair photo.
What I’d like you to do for next lesson is take a look this site
Click on option to open a new map and select “displacement”
I’d like you to answer these questions
(1) What does the map show? (hint… click “interpreting the map”)
(2) Where in the world does displacement seem to be highest?
(3) Is there anything that suprised you about the map of displacement?
