The learning package provides examples of archival
material that illustrate the National Curriculum Unit, Going to the
Seaside. Activities based on them are described and suggestions made for
their use in teaching the Unit. There are direct digital links to the
images, cross-references to learning objectives, information about the
images and references to other source material available through new
partnerships.
These resources are designed to lead pupils
through an enquiry-based learning process, whereby evidence is presented
and pupils respond to that evidence. Allowing children to express their
opinions and understanding of issues at a range of scales (local,
national and international) are core components of developing important
geographical enquiry and skills. The ways in which each activity
addresses these core objectives are detailed throughout the learning
package.
The
Inspire! boxes and the Partnership database are intended to provide
opportunities for teachers to widen the learning experience. The direct
links enable teachers to include support activities through new external
partnerships that will excite a thirst for more information and bring
about a change in the children’s perceptions of the world.
