Another presentation to about 50 heads & grateful for a chance to talk #primarygeography. Geography can be an anchor for children helping them make sense of their place in the world, especially given these challenging times. Some thoughts.
Places have meaning for us all #Thread

Geographical Enquiry matters. It drives curiosity, empowers learning & good enquiry is creative & critical. #primarygeography. We need to teach children how to ask good questions & think about what they tell us - fact or opinion?

Exciting & purposeful #primarygeography has rigour & relevance. It absolutely has core knowledge, underpinned by conceptual understanding, but balances this with affective & sensory ways of knowing.
