St Ambrose RC Primary School GEOGRAPHY I CAN STATEMENTS Geography Skills I Can Statements Key Stage 1 I can ask and answer questions about places I can use books, pictures, DVDs and websites to find out about places I can use different kinds of maps, atlases and globes to locate geographical features, such as continents and oceans; the countries that make up the United Kingdom and their capital cities; countries I may be studying I can use geographical vocabulary correctly I can talk about geographical similarities and differences through studying the human and physical geography of a small area of the United Kingdom. I can talk about geographical similarities and differences through studying a contrasting non-European country I can talk about how people in different places or countries live their lives I can use first hand observation to identify seasonal and daily weather patterns in the local area I can locate hot and cold areas of the world in relation to the Equator and the North and South Poles I can name key physical features, including: beach, cliff, coast, forest, hill, mountain, sea, ocean, river, soil, valley, vegetation, season and weather I can name key human geography features, including: city, town, village, factory, farm, house, office, port, harbour and shop I can describe places I have seen in a fiction or non-fiction book or on a DVD. I can use first hand observation and fieldwork to describe the human and physical geography of the local area. I can record my observations of the local area in different ways, such as labelled drawings, sketches, plans, maps or writing I can 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 I can use aerial photographs and simple maps or plans to recognise basic landmarks and features, such as towns, villages, rivers and hills. I can make a simple map or plan with symbols and a key. I can draw a simple plan view. Key Stage 2 I can ask and answer questions about geographical locations. I can use geographical vocabulary correctly I can use books, pictures, DVDs and websites to find information about places and the people who live there. I can describe countries in terms of their environmental regions, climate, physical features and human characteristics, such as major cities. I can name and locate some counties and cities of the United Kingdom, geographical regions and their identifying human and physical characteristics. I can compare and contrast the similarities and differences between different geographical locations or regions 1 Geography I Can Statements 2015 I can identify key topographical features (including hills, mountains, coasts and rivers), and land-use patterns; and understand how some of these aspects have changed over time I can identify the position and significance of latitude, longitude, Equator, Northern Hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, Arctic and Antarctic Circle, the Prime/Greenwich Meridian and time zones (including day and night) I can describe and understand aspects of physical geography, using vocabulary such as climate zones, biomes, vegetation belts, rivers, mountains, volcanoes and earthquakes I can explain the importance and workings of the water cycle I can discuss human geography, including types of settlement, land use and other types of economic activity. I can describe links between different countries, such as trade links, exports and imports I can describe how natural resources, such as water, energy, food and minerals are distributed I can discuss environmental issues that are of concern globally and locally I can use field study techniques to observe, measure and record human and physical features in the local area, including weather data I can present my studies of the local area as sketch maps, plans, graphs, charts and photographs I can describe patterns of change in the local area I can use different types of maps, atlases, globes and digital maps to locate countries or other physical features globally, nationally or in the local area. I can use the eight points of the compass I can use grid references to locate geographical features I can use symbols and keys to locate locations I can place symbols and keys on maps and plans that I may draw 2 Geography I Can Statements 2015
