British Red Cross Earthquake resources - now updated
A few updates on the British Red Cross resources which I created a year and a half ago (a bit of an epic in the end)

Paul Berry's session at the GA on maps
Last year, Paul Berry's final session at the GA Teachmeet was a highlight of the conference for a lot of people. This year, he was up next to last, but I loved his exploration of a year spent away from home on fieldwork through his career, told through the medium of beer… See my Teachmeet post from a few posts back for the link to the clip where you can find out about scree cuddling and gryke snorkelling. I have to admit to some erratic rolling in my time as well... the bloke from the National Park authority was not impressed when he saw our video footage though...
I missed Paul's main workshop session which was titled, "Might as well face it, you're addicted to maps", and I made an appearance as one of Robert Palmer's backing musicians...
You can see Paul's presentation below.
I liked the idea that a quarter of people in the UK had booked a holiday without knowing where they were going on the map - I would suggest it might actually be more than that - and even within the UK.
You can read about the session on his blog post here: DEVON GEOGRAPHY is his blog.

Preparing for the new National Curriculum 2014
Many thanks to Paul Berry for being one of the first to share his planning for the new Curriculum, which will start to be taught in thousands of schools in less than a month's time.
I admit to having started on my thinking for the new school year, but currently am involved in a great deal of writing, so will get to it at the end of August.
One of the great things about Paul's post on his Devon Geography blog is the sharing of a list of the enquiry questions which he is going to be using, which are really interesting. Paul is asking for feedback on those, and the other elements that are going into his planning so far. It's great, as always, to see colleagues sharing ideas within the community for the benefit of us all...
