After learning key vocabulary, children will compare relief maps of the UK and Italy to visually identify patterns in mountain formation. They will learn how much of the UK is mountainous and what UK mountains look like, and why. They will look at case studies of mountainous areas in each of the four countries that form the UK to learn more about each of these, including the highest point in each country found within these. For their tasks, they will label mountainous areas and mountains onto a map of the UK, then compare these to ranges from around the world from last lesson using comparison models such as tables or Venn diagrams, before finishing with engaging assessment questions so you can gauge what has been learnt throughout this exciting geography lesson.
