Geography Key Terms
Every word a geography department teaches, Year 7 to A Level, in one A4 book. Each key stage gets its own pages: the terms grouped the way they are taught rather than alphabetically, a definition that fits on two lines, and a worked example beside almost every one. Each key stage opens on one invented map extract, annotated — map and fieldwork skills, the one thing every other band in the book is read or measured through — and the numbers on it appear again beside the same words in the list; a further twelve pages carry a real drawn figure wherever a picture genuinely teaches faster than a sentence: a river's long profile, the headland sequence, a plate boundary, a population pyramid, a storm hydrograph. Then a page on using the words: the ones the assessment itself is written in, the false friends that mean something else in a geography classroom — a basin is not a sink, a delta is not a Greek letter, scale is not fish skin — the same point written weakly and then properly, and what each word becomes at the next key stage.

- Referenced to the DfE's national curriculum programmes of study for geography at Key Stage 3, the Geography GCSE subject content (April 2014, DFE-00345-2014) including its appendix on mathematics and statistics in geography, and the GCE AS and A level subject content for geography (DFE-00693-2014) with its own annex of quantitative skills; both GCSE and A Level also follow Ofqual's subject-level conditions, which set the assessment objectives quoted on the words-at-work pages; 161 of 288 terms appear by name in one of those documents and the cover says so, the rest are standard geographical vocabulary defined here in plain English; no awarding body is named, and nothing a board decides for itself appears in the A Level pages
