Curriculum-based Dartmoor Experience

Dear Reader!

I am currently putting together packages for schools to address specific National Curriculum requirements for Key stage 2 History and Geography. All the below can be brought to life during a day visit to Dartmoor lead by a knowledgeable teacher/guide. (O.k. I mean me!)

History: 2/1.1    Pre-Roman Britain: Pupils should be taught about changes in Britain from the Stone Age to the Iron Age

  1. a.    late Neolithic hunter-gatherers and early farmers
  2. b.    Bronze Age religion, technology and travel
  3. c.    Iron Age hill forts: tribal kingdoms, farming, art and culture

 

Geography: 2/1.4    Geographical Skills and Fieldwork

  1. Geography 2/1.4b    use the 8 points of a compass, 4 and 6-figure grid references, symbols and key (including the use of Ordnance Survey maps) to build their knowledge of the United Kingdom and the wider world
Elements of local history, human and physical geography can also be included.
Feel free to get in touch for a no obligation discussion – pre-visits to work on map and compass skills in school can be included.
