Lessons two to five take students on a virtual tour of four unique cities: Cairo, Reykjavik, Rio de Janeiro, and Venice. This immersive approach is intended to spark curiosity and inspire students to research a city of their choice. Aligned with the Key Stage 1 curriculum and rooted in enquiry-based learning, the pack promotes critical thinking and creativity. Comprehensive teacher notes, visually engaging PowerPoint presentations, and tailored worksheets ensure that educators have all the tools they need to deliver the lessons effectively. By combining structured learning with opportunities for independent exploration, this resource provides an engaging and educational experience for young learners.
