Each week, learners will complete an activity together in class as we explore our wonderful world together.  They will also be given a factfile page to print off which can gradually build up into an encyclopaedia of geographical knowledge as well as a sticker to celebrate what they have learnt that lesson.  Additionally, there is an optional extra activity that can be completed at home to consolidate their learning.
