🧵🧵Delighted that my research on Irish Primary Children's Attitudes Towards Geography & their Preferred ways of Learning geography is now published on Open Access Irish Educational Studies (IES) Irish Education News Education Matters EdChatIE #edchatie #primarygeography #primaryteacher tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

#Year2 have shown fantastic resilience in their #geography skills lesson using compasses. They worked in unity to navigate their way around the areas to complete challenges. They used their directional language and the compasses to help them describe movements. #PrimaryGeography

Excellent and insightful article by Katie Jenkins in the summer edition of the Geographical Association Geography Primary / Early Years Committee @The_GA Primary Geography Journal on child-led enquiry & perceptions of the Amazon Rainforest deforestation #PrimaryGeography 👏👏

Year 1 demonstrated amazing teamwork whilst creating their ‘messy maps’ of the local area. #teamwork #primarygeography

Some say a little graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) may be a positive sign. Could that be true?

Thank you Kapow Primary for a fantastic #gpsgeography about biomes

Year 5 went on a fieldwork trip to Reddish Vale butterfly 🦋 garden today. They were looking at ways to improve the area for visitors and the local community #fieldwork #primarygeography

On Tuesday, Year 6 visited Migration Museum in Lewisham. We learnt all about how migration has positively impacted the British high street and we even got to share our own migration stories!

Irish children are experiencing v little geography on the local area with practical fieldwork investigations extremely limited. Alongside other research its clear the vision for #primarygeography outlined in the curriculum is not materialising in lessons & learning experiences

This framework by Paula Owens (Dr Paula Owens FRGS) offers a progression in mapping skills and knowledge for primary learners in years 1-6. Find out more: ow.ly/hCby50ON3YL #GeographyTeacher

Today our Year 4 children explored their local community to understand how the area around our school is used and why people settled here. The children learnt a great deal about how unique our local area is! Kapow Primary

This week in #Geography we started our learning on energy & natural resources.

Quite a few children didn’t know where our energy ⚡️ came from.

So we plotted out that journey a bit!
