Look at the map carefully.
We reckon this is a mistake, can you spot the problem with the mapping of the Democratic Republic of Congo?

Good luck for the Religious Studies exam tomorrow, whether Full Course or Short Course, my thoughts will be with you at about 2.00 p.m. . 
Thanks Luke for informing us about the origin of Greenland’s name, there are in fact several theories, but one does suggest that it was named to attract potential settlers from Iceland. I’ve learnt something today, as well as the important Whale facts.

Alan has now started posting tasks on his pilot blog preparing KES geographers for the pre-release. I would use these as an ongoing revision exercise, just substitute Kings Lynn (their place) for our place (Ilkeston). Keep an eye on the KES blog.

I’ve added a wealth of material to the pre-release page, some of which we will be using this week.
I’ve added the usual pre-release PowerPoint, a link to a Teacher’s T.V. video about the future of Antarctica, the Extreme Environments revisions notes (you should have a copy, if not see me), a document about the uses/exploitation of Antarctica and the potential consequences, a PowerPoint about our chosen physical processes and a grade or no grade game.
I would particularly look at revising at least one of the physical processes, you should be able to draw and annotate a diagram if asked.

We didn’t see each other this Monday because of the Bank Holiday, but we are time rich at the moment, I think… Please remember though that some of you will miss sessions because of the exams, you will need to incorporate using the pre-release materials into your own preparation time. Please see me if you have any questions.
I’ve now added the pre-release part.4 PowerPoint. We didn’t get time to review the questions, which we’ll do on Monday. I’ve also added a fling the teacher game on the sectors of industry, to keep you occupied.
We spent the day finalising your coursework marks, which will be sent to the examiner at the end of the week. If you want your mark for the cultural geography unit, please email me or catch me during the day. I have to say I was very proud of your efforts.
Final question… yesterday Nottingham has been dubbed Hottingham after gaining the country’s highest temperature this year, is there any link to the promotion of Forest?

It is that time of year when people are disappearing and reappearing, this is just a fact of life at the moment.
I have now uploaded the Pre-Release PowerPoint 3. This includes our thoughts about the pattern of distribution shown by the group’s clothing, the reasons for China’s dominance, the conditions faced by workers in Bangladesh, reasons why the wealth from manufacturing is not spread and potential ideas for improving workers’ conditions.
I must urge people to look through the resources if you are unable to attend a session. You must be very familiar and confident with the resources and the concepts behind them before the exam.
