Improving the environment

http://www.standards.dfee.gov.uk/schemes/geography/geo8?version=1

This is a 'long' unit. In it, children use the school buildings, grounds and immediate locality to investigate environmental issues and improvements. It encourages children to become actively involved in improving their local environment. The unit may also be shortened to a medium unit by retaining the work on litter in the classroom and omitting the work in the school grounds. Guidance on how to link the Geography Scheme of Work with other areas of the curriculum can be found in the section about Links with other areas of the curriculum. This particular unit offers links to literacy, mathematics, IT and environmental education.
