Geography Long Term Planning GEOGRAPHY is concerned with the study of places, the human and the physical processes, which shape them and the people who live in them. It helps pupils to make sense of their surroundings and the wider world. We teach geography throughout our topic-based curriculum. The children are taught to use maps, atlases, globes and compasses. We endeavor to extend children’s interest, knowledge and understanding of people and places both near and far. Children are encouraged to think deeply about the environment in which they live and the scarce resources that the Earth provides and upon which all life depends. Key Stage 1 Ongoing throughout the year with Year 1 children: identify seasonal and daily weather patterns in the United Kingdom Cycle 1: 2014 -2015 Autumn - Pirates use a map locate co-ordinates identify the location of hot and cold areas of the world in relation to the Equator and the North and South Poles Spring - London recognise features of places and their purpose / use recognise how people can change an area recognise how places have become the way they are compare places with own locality describe features and recognise features of a place (town etc.) Summer - Seaside name and locate the world’s seven continents and five oceans name the countries of the UK, their capital cities and surroundings seas recognise features of a place and their purpose recognise how people can change an area make maps and aerial plans with a key use maps to find places use a map to find out about a place use geographical vocabulary describe features of a place describe what a place is like use a range of resources to find out about a place compare different places evaluate a place recognise features of places and their purpose / use express views of a local place recognise how people can change an area describe people in an area and what they do make maps using a variety of resources position places on a simple map with reference to the physical place describe features and recognise features of a place describe what a place is like recognise how places have become the way they are recognise how places can be improved draw aerial plans and maps with a colour key to show places and routes use UK and world maps to locate places carry out surveys within the locality use simple compass directions and locational and directional language to describe the location of features and routes on a map name and locate the world’s seven continents and five oceans name the countries of the UK, their capital cities and surroundings seas describe features of a place know about a far away place compare places with own locality describe what a place is like recognise why places have become the way they are recognise how places can be improved recognise how an area affects people’s lives use world maps to locate places create and draw aerial maps with a key use a map to find out about a place use positional language Cycle 2: 2015-2016 Autumn - Ourselves Spring - Rainforest Summer - Castles to use a map to label a map name and locate counties of UK identify human and physical features of region key topographical features (including hills, mountains, coasts and rivers) use maps and aerial photographs use eight points of compass, symbols and keys draw maps using symbols and keys name and locate countries of Europe identify human and physical features of the region identify key topographical features (including hills, mountains, coasts and rivers) understand geographical similarities and differences through comparison with region of UK study mountains and volcanoes use eight points of compass, symbols and keys use maps and aerial photographs name and locate major cities of UK identify features of villages, towns and cities recognise that settlements have specific features and are located in response to physical features and human choice recognise different services in villages, towns and cities recognise that land is put to different uses investigate land use in Upper Dean and relate to other settlements use fieldwork to observe, measure and record land in the locality Key Stage 2 Cycle One: 2014 -2015 Study of a region in the UK (London) Study of a region of a European country (Italy) Types of settlement and land use Cycle 2: 2015 - 2016 Climate zones, Equator, hemispheres, Artic and Antarctic identify position and significance of Equator, Northern and Southern Hemispheres, Arctic and Antarctic describe climatic zones using geographical terminology use geographical vocabulary about weather conditions around the world extreme climatic conditions: why are the poles so cold? How do people, animals and plants survive? what is global warming? what is the effect of global warming on the Arctic and Antarctic? Study of a region of North America (Mexico) locate countries and major cities of North America use maps, atlases and globes begin to be aware of scale make deduction from maps draw maps use a range of secondary resources to find out information identify physical and human features of a place understand geographical similarities and differences between places through comparison with own locality Rivers (Nile) name and locate major rivers of the world know main stages of a rivers course use geographical vocabulary to describe a river’s course map a river’s course know how a river’s course changes through erosion identify uses of rivers understand the importance of rivers to human settlement and life consider environmental impact of uses of rivers
