Two lessons to focus on the physical and human geography of Spain. Lesson 1 (titled Lesson 4) - A lesson that focuses on the physical geography of Spain, including looking at the rivers, seas and terrain. All the resources that are needed to run the lesson are here including differentiated worksheets, the presentation and maps that can be used if you don't have access to atlases etc. Lesson 2 (titled Lesson 5) - A lesson that focuses on the human geography of Spain, including looking at population trends, average life expectancy and land use. All the resources that are needed to run the lesson are here including differentiated worksheets, the presentation and maps that can be used if you don't have access to atlases etc. N.B They are titled differently to their actual lesson numbers as they form part of a bigger unit of work.

A blank map activity that can be used to get children to show where Vikings originate from as well as where they settled. Children can then map out the potential journey the Vikings took to get to the various places through the use of arrows. Included is a map of Europe showing where the Vikings settled and raided to support children.

A lesson that focuses on comparing and contrasting physical and human geographical features between the United Kingdom and Canada. Each slide has a map of Canada and of the U.K for a particular feature with the class then spending time noting down similarities and differences. These can then be discussed as a class before moving on to the next slide.

The fifth of a ten part series of lessons that focus on many of the elements of the locational knowledge aspects for the KS2 Geography curriculum. The series of lessons focuses predominantly on children being able to use maps to find countries and cities in different continents as well as a brief focus on time zones and globalisation. All of the resources needed to run the lesson are included with worksheets, any potential example maps required (in case atlases are unavailable) the presentation and unit of work plan. This lesson focuses on being able to identify various European countries and their capital cities and labelling these via a blank map.

A list of European countries where children are required to list the capital cities. Can either be done as a quiz/ challenge to see which they know or as a challenge involving using maps. Included are the answers as well to go through these.

A story taken from BBC News about the need to charge people a deposit to reduce how many tents are being left at festivals aterwards. Included is the majority of the story and a comprehension activity that includes answers. Also useful for a discussion about plastic and what children think about the tents left behind and how they could be used/ how the issue could be resolved.

An activity that gets children to think about trade and what it means. There are different questions to respond to, including what it means and synonyms as well as examples and how they think it has changed over time.

An activity that gets children to think about trade and how they buy something locally. In the middle is a picture of coffee, with questions building around the outside, such as where they can buy it locally which may include shops and cafes, why people buy it, how people can pay for it and what other trades may be involved in them then being able to buy the coffee locally.

The first in a sequence of twelve lessons that focuses on biomes and vegetation. Included is the unit plan, a KWL sheet that can be used to check and develop understanding, the lesson presentation which includes pink and green bubbles to support and challenge and activities required for the lesson as well as a fact file.

A planning overview resource to support the teaching of Science, History and Geography across KS2. Every KS2 topic is included with each planning overview following the same structure: Knowledge children must know - This provides a minimum level of what is expected for children to know by the end of the unit and provides consistency across classes. This also helps ensure progression and cohesion between topics. Ways of knowing they know - Ideas for checking understanding and knowing that children have learnt the minimum level of knowledge. Vocabulary - Key vocabulary across the unit that children will need to understand Other links - Links to other subjects and ideas for investigations (science) for each topic The geography then runs slightly differently in that instead of cross-curricular links, it highlights which areas of the curriculum you are meeting. These sheets help start the planning process by making it clear what children should know by the end for staff to then use and link together in a sequence of learning. This then feeds through KS2 as it ensures a minimum level of knowledge that supports progression and cohesion across the curriculum. There are missing elements such as local fieldwork for geography which needs teaching and some match local needs for our context so these would need changing to match your local area. Because of mixed classes, the Geography and History work over two years though with an additional history of choice added each year though this could be changed to fit single year groups.

A simple knowledge organiser for a topic on rainforests. Included is an image of a potential example one, some important vocabulary, a map of the world showing where all the rainforests are and a map showing biodiversity.
