Curriculum: Geography
| |
Our children learn geographical
skills to enable them to use maps of all kinds. In
addition, we give them an increasing awareness and
understanding of places locally, nationally and
globally.
We
enjoy a good range of resources for geography. Some
aspects of the subject may be taught through half-termly
projects. We use the local environment for first hand
experiences and there are a number of trips to look at
our immediate local area and also to Kew Gardens and the
River Thames. In the Early Years Foundation Stage,
children develop their knowledge of their local
environment and look at similarities and differences of
hot
and cold countries.
Children in Key Stage 1 (Infants) develop mapping skills
by looking at the locality of the school as well as maps
and plans.
Children in Key Stage 2 (Juniors) develop skills further
by looking at distant localities. |
