Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Year 6 Name, locate and identify characteristics of the four countries and capital cities of the United Kingdom and its surrounding seas Name and locate the world’s seven continents and five oceans UK FOCUS EUROPE/SPAIN FOCUS THE AMERICAS/ST LUCIA FOCUS WORLDWIDE FOCUS Locate and name the continents on a World Map On a world map, locate areas of similar environmental regions, either desert, rainforest or temperate regions. (Use world maps, atlases and globes to identify) Identify seasonal and daily weather patterns in the United Kingdom Identify the location of hot and cold areas of the world in relation to the Equator and the North and South Poles Use simple fieldwork and observational skills to study the geography of their school and its grounds, and the key human and physical features of its surrounding environment. (Use world maps, atlases and globes to identify) Understand geographical similarities and differences through studying the human and physical geography of Great Yarmouth, and a small area in a country in Asia Name and locate and name the countries making up the British Isles, with their capital cities Name and locate the main counties and cities in/around UK Name and locate key topographical features of the UK (including hills, mountains, coasts and rivers), and land-use patterns; and understand how some of these aspects have changed over time. Understand geographical similarities and differences through the study of human (focus on types of settlement and land use) and physical geography of a region in the UK Use simple fieldwork and observational skills to study the geography of their school and i’s grounds, and the key human and physical features of its surrounding environment. Enquiry question: How safe is Suffolk Road? (Links to PSHE) Use basic geographical vocabulary to refer to: • Key physical features, including: beach, cliff, coast, forest, hill, mountain, sea, ocean, river, soil, valley, vegetation, season and weather • Key human features, including: city, town, village, factory, farm, house, office, port, harbour and shop • Use simple compass directions (North, South, East and West) and locational and directional language [for example, near and far; left and right], to describe the location of features and routes on a map • Use aerial photographs and plan perspectives to recognise landmarks and basic human and physical features • Devise a simple map and use and construct basic symbols in a key Identify the position and significance of Equator, Northern and Southern Hemisphere and the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn Locate the main countries of Europe Identify capital cities of Europe Identify climate zones, biomes and vegetation belts Rivers - Describe some of the physical characteristics (geomorphology) (Link to water cycle in Science) Understand geographical similarities and differences through the study of human and physical geography of a region in a European country (Spain) Locate the main countries North or South America. Locate and name principal cities Identify climate zones, biomes and vegetation belts Mountains and volcanoes -Describe some of the physical characteristics (geomorphology) Understand geographical similarities and differences through the study of human (focus on economic activity including trade links) and physical geography of a region within South America (St. Lucia) Identify the position and significance of latitude, longitude, the Prime/Greenwich Meridian and time zones (including day and night) On a world map locate the main countries in Africa, Asia and Australasia/Oceania. Identify their main environmental regions, key physical and human characteristics, and major cities. Earthquakes - Describe some of the physical characteristics (geomorphology) A study of some of the current issues around the distribution of natural resources: • Energy • Food • Minerals • Water - Sanitation (With a focus on countries within Africa) Use fieldwork to observe, measure, record and present the human and physical features in the local area using a range of methods, including sketch maps, plans and graphs, and digital technologies Collect, analyse and communicate geographical information in a variety of ways, including through maps, numerical and quantitative skills and writing at length. Year 3: Through the window: How has the view from the window changed? (How has Great Yarmouth’s land use changed over the past 200 years?) Year 4: Should Gapton Hall be put on a bus route? Year 5: What impact has tourism had on Great Yarmouth? (Has it changed over time? What can we do to increase tourism?) Year 6: Help! I’m a coastal resident, get me out of here! Why are our beaches disappearing, what is the impact and what can we do about it? Use and interpret a range of sources of geographical information, including maps, diagrams, globes, aerial photographs, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and digital/computer mapping (Google Earth and Digimaps) Use and interpret a range of sources of geographical information, including maps, diagrams, globes, aerial photographs, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and digital/computer mapping (Google Earth and Digimaps) Use and interpret a range of sources of geographical information, including maps, diagrams, globes, aerial photographs, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and digital/computer mapping (Google Earth and Digimaps) Learn and use the eight points of a compass, two-figure grid references (Links with maths), symbols and key (including the use of Ordnance Survey maps) to build their knowledge of the United Kingdom and the wider world Learn and use the eight points of a compass, four-figure grid references (Links with maths), symbols and key (including the use of Ordnance Survey maps) to build their knowledge of the United Kingdom and the wider world Learn and use the eight points of a compass, four-figure grid references (Links with maths), symbols and key (including the use of Ordnance Survey maps) to build their knowledge of the United Kingdom and the wider world Use and interpret a range of sources of geographical information, including maps, diagrams, globes, aerial photographs, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and digital/computer mapping (Google Earth and Digimaps) Learn and use the eight points of a compass, sixfigure grid references (Links with maths), symbols and key (including the use of Ordnance Survey maps) to build their knowledge of the United Kingdom and the wider world
