Summary
Three teachers offer their favourite great lesson ideas for primary geography lessons. The first looks at orienteering skills combining PE with geography. Map symbols are introduced in the first activity which quickly progresses into children discovering a trail around their school grounds. This is followed by a lesson using an unlabelled map of a familiar location and challenging children to site renewable energy resources in their locality. Finally, children are entered into a fake scenario where they are told that a location they love - in this case a farm - is going to be pulled down to make way for a development - a power station. Using persuasive argument techniques such as powerful words and rhetorical questions, they design an oral argument against the power station. At the end of the lesson, the children are told that the plan is not true - but because they believed it was, their arguments were deeply passionate.
