Four imaginative great lesson ideas linked to GCSE geography topics. Mal Burden demonstrates two ideas for teaching population. One idea involves using jelly babies to demonstrate population structure and changes. His second lesson idea is aimed at helping students understand the reasons behind migration by getting them to move round the class in response to changing conditions. Maria Larkin demonstrates a great lesson idea for helping students to get to grips with the idea of different groups in society .
