Continue your LKS2 unit on mountains with this LKS2 Why is That Mountain There? PPT.

After learning key vocabulary, children will revisit prior learning from KS1 about the continents and investigate tectonic plates (building on learning from last lesson). Using a map, they will identify where and why specific mountain ranges were formed. For their tasks, they will draw mountain ranges onto a map and draw conclusions about what they notice, then research and write a non-chronological report about a mountain range of their choice, before finishing with engaging assessment questions so you can gauge what has been learnt throughout this exciting geography lesson.
