Summary

• Description:

  The MS Word document comprises Grade 10 Geography Term 3 Schemes of Work 2026 - Distinction. The PDF version is also available upon your request.

  This downloadable Scheme of Work offers comprehensive lesson plans for Grade 10 Geography during Term 3 2026. Grounded in the Distinction Geography Grade 10 textbook (pages 134–161), the scheme combines physical and economic geography principles with statistical data analysis, maps, video case studies, and field projects.

  The scheme is organized into the following strands and substrands:

  • Human and Economic Activities
    • Mining
    • Energy
    • Industry

  The topics covered throughout the term include:

  • Mining: Mineral occurrence formations (veins, lodes, seams, alluvial deposits) and geological processes (vulcanicity, metamorphism, sedimentation, weathering). Learners analyze factors influencing mineral exploitation, extraction methods (open-cast, alluvial, shaft, drift, slope, solution, deep drilling), and examine case studies: Limestone mining in Kenya (Bamburi and Athi River cement production), Diamond mining in Botswana, and Iron ore mining in Australia. Includes environmental impacts, rehabilitative mining, and computing statistical trends in East African mineral production.
  • Energy: Classification of renewable (solar, wind, hydro, biomass, geothermal) vs. non-renewable energy sources. Learners study energy development case studies: Hydropower in Kenya and Uganda (Owen Falls/Nalubaale, Bujagali, Karuma), Geothermal energy in Kenya (Olkaria) and Italy (Larderello), Solar energy in Vietnam (Dau Tieng), and Wind energy in Spain. Lessons cover socio-economic benefits, consumer rights, household energy conservation (LED lighting), and building improvised fuel-efficient jikos.
  • Industry: Industry classification (primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary) and world industry categories. Learners study global car manufacturing in Japan (Toyota Production System, lean manufacturing, hybrid/electric innovation), analyze challenges facing Kenyan manufacturing (high electricity costs, infrastructure gaps, cheap imports), write a proposal letter to establish a school-based cottage industry (pottery/crafts), and investigate environmental impacts like effluent pollution in the Nairobi River.

  This downloadable Grade 10 Geography Scheme of Work equips secondary school teachers with atlas work, statistical graphing tasks, research assignments, and project evaluation tools for Term 3 2026.
