Geography homework

‘Homework is a contentious issue in any school; some people are supporters, others have their doubts. What seems clear, however, is that if it is set with clear guidelines and a sense of purpose; if it is interesting and engaging; it has the potential to encourage enthusiasm and produce excellent quality work.’

Moira Duffy, 2013

Topics on this page:

What is good homework, how to make it meaningful, setting homework for your classes, reviewing your homework practice, flipped learning.

We are using the term ‘homework’, as described in the DfE Frameworks, for all ‘out-of-class work’ or ‘home learning’. Some schools use alternative terms.

The EEF (2020) noted:

The evidence shows that the impact of homework, on average, is five months’ additional progress. However, beneath this average there is a wide variation in potential impact, suggesting that how homework is set is likely to be very important.

Different schools have different approaches to homework. Most have a policy in terms of when and how much homework should be set. As a classroom teacher, you will not have control over this. However, you have considerable control over the  type  of homework set.

The most important thing is the quality of homework and not the quantity . Homework is an ideal opportunity to develop effective study habits in older students and to practice key knowledge and skills. Homework should be integrated with the teacher’s overall goals for what students will learn in a unit of work. Homework can be part of independent practice .

Criteria for good homework:

Homework should:

• develop students’ geographical knowledge and skills
• be related to the learning in the unit of work currently being studied
• be linked to in-class activity
• be challenging – but pupils should be able to complete it successfully
• be inclusive, so all students can gain from it
• have a clear purpose that students understand
• be engaging and manageable, i.e. students have access to the resources/support to complete it.

Students should receive feedback on homework. One way to do this, without a marking burden, is to review it at the start of the lesson.

Explore the variety of homework activities in your school.

• What do you think are good tasks?
• Meet a group of students and discuss with them their thoughts on homework and the types of tasks they find exciting and engaging and that help them to learn.
• Why do they set geography homework?
• How do they approach homework with their classes?
• How do they view homework – the ‘bane of their life’ or an opportunity?
• Do they use independent research tasks?
• Do they consider homework to be ‘home learning’?
• Are there different purposes with students of different ages?
• Do they mark homework? How do they make this manageable?

The diagram, which comes from  chapter 21  of the GA’s  Secondary Geography Handbook  (2006), outlines some of the reasons for setting homework in geography and some questions you should consider about each.

Think about  why  you are setting homework and make sure that you set homework that is valuable for students’ learning. The quality of homework and its relevance to the teaching is more important than the amount set. Consider how you can use homework to engage and motivate students to learn geography.

It is important that the learning that students do away from the classroom is fed back into your lessons. However, bear in mind that students from different backgrounds have different opportunities and experiences of doing schoolwork at home; for some disadvantaged students it can be difficult.

• Read Balderstone and Lambert (1999) and Duffy (2013).

There are many opportunities for setting rich and varied homework in geography. Some homework ideas are:

• Figure 1 Balderstone and Lambert (1999) lists several good examples that you could explore.
• The independent research tasks illustrated in Duffy (2013). The full task sheet is available in the online resources accompanying the article.
• Wall (2017) in  Teaching Geography , Summer 2017 p. 53 explains how his department uses homework to develop students’ enquiry skills and ability to work independently.
• Noyes (2019) p. 105 describes how her department uses homework projects for year 7 and 8 to develop the skills required for GCSE. A homework task is available as a download.
• Look at the PowerPoint from The GA Conference 2021  Adding mastery, breadth and depth to the curriculum through homework   by Jen Monk.

Homework should not be an ‘afterthought’ that is set for students just before the bell! Look at these further examples of how geography departments carefully planned how they would use homework. Harris (2017) suggests different imaginative ways of using homework.

• Example of a lesson plan  on crime for year 7 (Balderstone, 2006). The annotations show how the homework has been carefully planned and is integral to the lesson.
• Case Study on  Challenge  by Jen Monk in Enser (2019). Chapter 1 illustrates how one department tackled the provision of challenge in homework and supplementary work.
• Harris (2017) chapter 13 introduces the idea of  take-away homework  with a menu approach for students to select from. This uses tasks with different levels of challenge, and the teacher guides individual students in their selection. He also discusses the role of  flipped learning  (see below) to engage students to work independently and a more traditional approach to homework using  homework booklets .
• Why am I setting this homework? What is its purpose?
• What do I expect students to learn from it?
• Do students understand what is expected and why they are doing it?
• Is this the best way to achieve the intended outcomes?
• Am I setting homework that sets high expectations for geographical learning?

Do not overlook the evaluation of the effectiveness of the homework you set and its impact on students’ learning. Do this regularly as part of your overall lesson evaluations.

• Did it fulfil its purpose? Did all students complete it?
• Did I share the intended objectives for this homework with students? Did they fully understand them?
• Did I successfully adapt the task for the range of abilities in the class?
• How well did students respond to the task? Were my expectations met? Did they find the task engaging to complete?
• What learning gains were achieved?
• Did the tasks successfully extend or consolidate learning from the lesson?

Flipped learning is when the convention of classroom learning followed by homework is inverted. Students are introduced to the learning material in advance, and during lesson time they explore the topics that have been introduced in greater depth. The phrase came into general use in the early mid-2000s and is often related to the use of online resources. Students might watch video explanations of key concepts or techniques, or complete research activities.

This model of learning is more than just a different approach to homework. It is a student-centred approach with a strong focus on developing independent study. Class time is devoted to expanding on, and mastering, geographical content through collaborative learning activities, projects and discussions. In a flipped learning environment, students have more control to learn at their own pace.

For example, a typical flipped lesson might work like this in the context of a topic on ‘coasts’:

• Students are set a preparation homework in which they read a textbook explanation of coastal erosion processes and watch a video of forms of coastal management to combat erosion. They are asked to make notes.
• The lesson starts with students asking the teacher about anything they found confusing. They add these explanations to their notes in their own words.
• The teacher questions them about coastal erosion and coastal management techniques to check understanding and explaining finer details where necessary.
• The teacher introduces a case study of coastal erosion on the Yorkshire coast, which they discuss together as a class, and apply their new knowledge to the case study.
• Working in groups and using OS maps, students are set a problem-solving activity to recommend a coastal management scheme for this stretch of coast.
• The class debate the alternative proposals.
• Read Baston (2016).
• Read  Developing Independent Learners – Attempts at Flipped Learning .
• Read the article by Alcock, Fryer and Robinson (2023) which describes the use of Harkness discussions in A level lessons to increase student engagement and develop skills of evaluation and synopticity. This type of discussion usually focuses on a shared stimulus, for example an article, which students have studied in advance so is a good example of flipped learning.
• Discuss the flipped learning model with your mentor. Has he/she used this approach? Have any other teachers used this approach? Discuss the advantages and disadvantages as they see it.
• Consider some opportunities to put this into practice with one of your classes. Plan the flipped learning together with your mentor and invite them to observe one of your lessons and jointly evaluate the outcomes.

15 Geography Games and Activities Your Students Will Love

Pass a globe, toss a bean bag, build with LEGO bricks and more!

Learning about the big wide world can be a lot of fun for students, and geography is the perfect subject for hands-on learning. These geography games and activities will introduce new concepts, broaden perspectives, and allow your students to practice valuable skills.

1. Geography Snap

This fun game is a one minute speed test for kids to identify as many states as they can. To play, pull a labeled stick and mark the state off your map. If you pull a SNAP stick, though, you’ll have to erase your map and start again.

2. 20 Questions

The classic game of 20 questions can be a perfect fit in your geography study. First, have one student come up with a state, country, or continent. Then, allow students to ask a yes or no question, one at a time. For example: “Is this state in the north?”, “Is this state on the coast?”, “Was this state one of the original colonies?”, etc. The goal, of course, is to guess the correct answer in 20 questions or less.

3. Battle of the States

Kids will recognize this fun game as a version of the card game War. Download these free trading cards with colored illustrations of each state, along with interesting facts. To play, deal all of the cards out to two players, face down. Each player pulls the top card, keeping it to themself, and calls out a category (population, electoral votes, etc.). Each player reads off the appropriate number, and the player with the higher number keeps the cards.

4. Bean Bag Maps

This is a simple but fun way to review geography. Have a supply of small bean bags handy and a large map of the world and/or the U.S. posted on the wall. One at a time, ask a student to toss a bean bag at a site on the map, for instance, the Pacific Ocean, Mexico, or Colorado. If they make an accurate throw they get a point, and if they miss, they must tell you what they hit instead. Kids could play this in a small group or with a partner, taking turns calling out locations and tossing the bean bag. Or, you could use this activity for whole-class review.

5. LEGO Landmarks

How fun is this? Students look at pictures of international landmarks and try to recreate them with LEGO bricks. Landmark flashcards can be found through Amazon, Etsy, Walmart and more. Or better yet, have students do research on the computer and make their own.

6. Fun with Flags

Flags are an important part of a nation’s identity, and learning about flags helps kids identify and remember places around the world. For this activity, ask each student to choose a country they are interested in. Have them do a bit of research and create a copy of that country’s flag on an 11×14 piece of construction paper. String all of the students’ flags to create a banner across your classroom to give it an international flair.

7. Geography Bingo

Have a little geography fun Bingo style and help your students recognize and remember the 50 states. Click on the link below for instructions, free downloadable Bingo cards and calling pieces.

8. Alphabet Game

This is a fun circle game that can help students memorize all fifty states. It’s perfect as a warm-up or as a geography review. (It also builds literacy skills.) The first student in the circle will say the name of a state. The next must name a state that begins with the last letter of the previous student’s state. For example: Student 1: California, Student 2: Arkansas, Student 3: South Carolina, etc. You can also play this game with countries. For example: Ireland/Denmark/Kazakhstan, etc. 

9. World Atlas Scavenger Hunt

Discover interesting facts about places around the world while learning how to navigate an atlas. This scavenger hunt for middle schoolers has 26 fun clues from (A – Z), all related to world geography.

10. Memory Game

Download these free state and state capital flashcards and make multiple copies. Create decks of twenty cards: 10 states plus 10 coordinating capitals. To play, students shuffle the deck, then lay each of the cards face-down. The goal is to flip over two cards, looking for a match. If the cards don’t match, they flip them back over. Play continues until all cards have been matched up.

11. Stack cups

These stacking cups are a great visual to help kids comprehend exactly where they live in the world. Each cup fits into the next, from home to city to state, all the way to the galaxy they live in. Download the free labels or make up your own.

12. Pass the Globe

Most kids love studying the globe. This circle activity is a geography version of hot potato. Have students sit in a circle, then turn on some music. Students will pass a globe around the circle until the music stops. When it does, the student holding the globe must identify the spot under their right thumb. Start the music again and play until everyone has had a turn. More than likely, students will learn the names of places they’ve never heard of before.

13. Create treasure hunts

Creating their own treasure hunt is a great way for kids to learn about important map skills. This blog explains the activity with a home map. Adapt it to fit in the classroom by having kids draw a map of their classroom or their school. Then, once everyone has finished their maps, have students partner up to find each other’s treasure.

14. Coordinates Game

Learning about latitude and longitude is an important map skill. This game gives students practice finding locations on a map using coordinates. Make a list of world locations (or U.S. locations) using just coordinates. Pair students up and give them the list and a sheet of gold star stickers. Working together, they must find the location on the map and mark it with a gold star. When they have finished, give them an answer sheet to check their answers.

15. 50 States Song

What better way to learn the names of the states, in alphabetical order no less, than with a song? This catchy tune has been around for years and years, and once you learn it, you won’t forget it.
