Topic 1 - Investigating Our World
Our first topic of the year is all about investigating the world around us. In this geography project, children will learn about locating map features using a range of methods. They will learn about the Prime Meridian, Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), and worldwide time zones. They will also learn about climate zones, vegetation belts and biomes. The children will also learn about human geography and capital cities worldwide before looking at the UK motorway network and settlements.
