Overall Objective: To develop the ability to read and interpret Ordnance Survey (OS) maps by understanding the symbols used and mastering the use of six-figure grid references to locate precise points on the map. Pupils will also learn how to read and calculate distances using the scale provided on the map, enabling them to accurately measure the distance between different locations. Learning Outcome: Pupils will be able to plan and follow a route using [...]

Overall Objective: To explore and understand the key physical features of rivers, including how they are formed, and the physical processes that shape the land through erosion, transportation, and deposition. Pupils will develop a deeper understanding of how rivers flow, change course, and affect the landscape around them. By examining different sections of a river, such as the source, meanders, and mouth, students will grasp the important role rivers play in shaping the environment. [...]

Overall Objective: To develop the ability to observe and analyse trends or patterns in data, events, or situations by making meaningful comparisons and understanding the relationship between cause and consequence. Pupils will learn how to identify recurring themes or changes over time and explain why they occur, as well as how one event may lead to specific outcomes. Learning Outcome: Pupils will be able to effectively explain trends or patterns they observe, either by [...]

Overall Objective: To develop skills in map reading and navigation by creating maps and planning routes within the local area, using the 8 points of the compass (north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, and northwest). Pupils will gain practical experience in using maps and compass directions to enhance their geographical understanding of direction and location. Learning Outcome: Pupils will be able to successfully use a map and compass to follow a planned route [...]

Overall Objective: To explore and understand the facilities required by different types of communities such as villages, towns, and cities, and to explain why these facilities are important based on the population size and community needs. Additionally, to compare and contrast two different areas by analysing sets of data, highlighting the similarities and differences in infrastructure, services, and population needs. Learning Outcome: Pupils will be able to describe the essential facilities needed in a [...]

Overall Objective: To explore and identify key features of the school by using aerial photographs and maps, helping pupils to understand the layout and important landmarks within the school environment. Learning Outcome: Pupils will be able to look at aerial photographs and maps and use these to correctly identify key features and areas of the school, such as the playground, classrooms, and main entrances. This activity aims to develop their understanding of map reading [...]
