Retrieval Examples Specific to Geography

Description

Format: eBook

The geography retrieval activities are intended to support pupils' geographical knowledge. They are designed as 10-, 15- or 20-minute activities to be taken at different times throughout the year.
The aim is to support pupils' long-term memory and to help them to 'know more and remember more'.

The activities link directly to the geography programmes of study for key stages 1 and 2. However, as you know, the national curriculum does not specify what should be taught each year but instead presents the programmes of study on a key stage basis. So, consider using the activities with a different age group than that specified, according to when they were taught the unit of learning.

You will notice that the retrieval activities include coverage from previous years. For example, knowledge of the world's continents and the countries and counties of the UK and Europe is repeated for many years after the direct teaching to help them recall key knowledge and information.

There is a suggested point system so that you can build up a profile of pupils who are meeting the geography expectations for their year group. In this way, the resource could be a useful part of an assessment tool that determines where there are gaps in pupils' knowledge and acknowledges whether they are at the stage of learning that they should be for their age.
