A five-page activity book that gets children using real maps and globes — the geographical-skills strand of the KS1 NC. Each page is an investigation: trace the seven continents, find the five oceans, locate the four UK capitals, identify physical and human features in your local area, and design your own treasure map.

The pages deliberately ask the child to look something UP (in an atlas, on a globe, or on Google Maps with a grown-up). The skill being built is “how do I find places I don’t know yet” — a lifelong geographical habit.

A planning companion for the locational-knowledge unit of KS1 geography. Maps every resource to its NC requirement, flags the geographical questions children consistently get wrong (Scotland’s capital, the 7 vs 6 continents debate, the Southern Ocean), gives the full KS1 geography vocabulary list, and lays out a 6-lesson scheme.

Particularly useful is the note on the place-knowledge strand: this pack covers locational knowledge well but does NOT cover the place-knowledge requirement (comparing a UK area with a contrasting non-European country) — that needs its own follow-on unit.
