Brilliant tour of the @EdenProject for the @Mount_Kelly A level Geographers covering a range of topics including sustainability, rural rebranding, diversification, ecosystems and geothermal power. The perfect #geography day out in the Cornish #rainforest

No better way to teach OS map skills to my students than through a visualiser. Best piece of teaching technology out there. IMHO #visualiser #geographyteacher

Heavy rain can cause volcanic eruptions according to New Scientist. Increasing amounts of heavy precipitation events triggering eruptions caused by climate change may be another effect. #ClimateChange #geographyteacher newscientist.com/article/mg2… – at Tavistock, England

We love this handwashing dance from Vietnamese dancer, Quang Đăng. Washing your hands with soap and water is one of the first steps to protect yourself from #coronavirus.

Really enjoyed spending an afternoon on Dartmoor with some super keen young geographers from Lamerton Primary School. Learning all about geology and carrying out a range of fieldwork including field sketching and rock identification.

This may seem an odd shot to share but on one side are the whaling ships and on the other the whaling adventure ships for tourists in Reykjavik. Only tourists really eat whale now along with puffin, horse. Is this the definition of irony? #MKIceland2019 #globalgovernace

Wait for it. 😭
Other than Geography, my favourite subject is football and when the pitches look as good as this it's the best classroom in the school. Thank you to the brilliant @Mount_Kelly ground staff! @MountKellySport Lovely cumulus clouds too! – at Tavistock, England

Where could @Mount_Kelly plant more trees?
