Gold7: Let's Investigate our Place - Step for Learning 7 (years 1 and 2)
This Step for Learning was produced in collaboration with the Geographical Association.
Children are asked to work out where they would place objects throughout their school grounds. This will consolidate their observational skills, and deepen their understanding of the interaction between physical and human processes.
The PDF provides notes for the teachers. It contains keywords, an index for the accompanying PowerPoint presentation and a worksheet.
The editable PowerPoint classroom presentation displays the lesson content (select the orange button to download). Please use ‘Slide Show’ mode to activate animations.
The accompanying Word Document is a letter from the local planning board (you can amend to be from your own council) asking children where a new local playground should be built.
