How it maps to the curriculum
- 5-6
- SESE Geography
Strand: Human Environments
Strand unit: People and Other Lands
Content objective: This resource should enable a child to:
- develop a sense of belonging to local, county, national, European and international communities
- study some aspects of the environments and lives of people in one location in Europe and one location in another part of the world
Suggestions for use: This is a fun activity to try as a class-based activity on the IWB. Be aware that if you pick Europe there are 46 countries to choose from. And if you pick N America you will have to place all the islands of the Caribbean. But it works really well and looks great.
