Continue your LKS2 unit on the counties and cities of the UK with this PowerPoint presentation all about Edinburgh!

After looking at the Scottish flag and locating the capital of Scotland within the UK, children will learn a range of historical and geographical information about Edinburgh, including a focus on important landmarks.

For their tasks, children will mark the location of learnt landmarks onto a street map of Edinburgh then plan a tour to teach others key information, which can be presented to a partner or the rest of the class for an oracy opportunity. They will think more deeply about why Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland despite not being the largest city in Scotland before finishing with engaging assessment questions so you can gauge what has been learnt throughout this exciting geography lesson.
