Most children will:
recognise selected physical and human processes and appreciate how these can change the character of places and environments studied;
identify and explain different views held by people about an environmental change;
recognise and describe how people can improve or damage the environment in particular cases;
use a range of skills and sources to undertake independent or teacher-planned investigations;
identify the points of reference specified on maps A, B and C in the national curriculum
Some children will not have made so much progress and will:
respond to questions about 'why things are like that';
begin to recognise that other people may have different views towards environmental change;
identify how people affect the environment;
use a range of skills and simple sources to undertake investigations planned by the teacher
Some children will have progressed further and will also:
collect, synthesise and use information from a wide range of secondary sources to inform their enquiries;
develop a suitable investigation for another place in the news;
compare reports of the same event in different media
