Every state-funded school must offer a curriculum
which is balanced and broadly based and which:

Promotes the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and
physical development of pupils at the school and of
society, and

Prepares pupils at the school for the opportunities,
responsibilities and experiences of later life.

The national curriculum is just one element
in the education of every child. There is
time and space in the school day and in
each week, term and year to range beyond
the national curriculum specifications. The
national curriculum provides an outline of
core knowledge around which teachers can
develop exciting and stimulating lessons to
promote the development of pupils’
knowledge, understanding and skills as part
of the wider school curriculum.

Use world maps, atlases and globes to identify the United
Kingdom and its countries, as well as the countries,
continents and oceans studied at this key stage
Use simple compass directions (north, south, east and
west) and locational and directional language [for
example, near and far, left and right], to describe the
location of features and routes on a map
Use aerial photographs and plan perspectives to recognise
landmarks and basic human and physical features; devise
a simple map; and use and construct basic symbols in a
key
Use simple fieldwork and observational skills to study the
geography of their school and its grounds and the key
human and physical features of its surrounding
environment
1) What will the purpose of your map be?
 2) What sort of map will you make?
(e.g. Treasure map)
 3) Get making
 4) Once you have made your map, you can
laminate it.
 5) Take photos of yours and other maps, so
you can load them onto your IWB if you wish
