Year 5 and 6 Geography Earthquake unit (HPL)

This is an incredible plan which uses experiential learning to build towards children creating there own NGO. It starts with children analysing the structure of the Earth then moves onto children identifying the seismic similarities and differences between 2 locations (Nepal and Japan). Finally, the children work together in groups to create there own NGO. They then take part in an NGO fair where they try to get support for their NGO. This unit is cross-curricular, making links with science, PSHE and other subjects. It also has High Performance Learning objectives added to the plan so the children better understand why they are learning and how the learning will help them.
