  • Dialogic talk is used from EYFS to Year 6.
  • Progession is demonstrated through vocabulary which is built apon each year.
  • Mindmaps will allow the children to reflect on what they have learnt.

They will build their geographical knowledge through understanding  through map skills looking at natural and human environments.
