Urban interactive landscape
Each 'i' pin has information on a different part of the urban landscape.
In Activity settings you can control which pins are included.
Many words which are key terminology for both human and physical geography are featured in the Glossary. The glossary is available at the top of screen and on the information pop-ups.
Information can be looked up through the contents icon in the top-left corner.
When children are familiar with the content, you can use the Test your knowledge button to see which features they can locate. There are settings for this mode.
Teaching tips:
This interactive scene gets children focusing on key physical features of urban landscapes and introduces them to the basic geographical vocabulary needed to name them.
Following this, they could label the ‘Urban features’ or make comparisons to ‘Rural landscape’ and ‘Coastal landscape’ where they can contrast human and physical features.
