This is a 'long' unit, in which children develop geographical ideas and skills by studying their own locality. The unit is based on a village in Surrey, but the teaching ideas can be applied to most localities in the UK. They could also be extended or adapted to encompass different themes, eg weather, microclimates, rivers, water features.
The unit can be shortened into a medium unit by leaving out one or both of the sections marked. The first three sections make a coherent unit, but may need some form of concluding activity.
This unit supports citizenship: 4, 5, 8, 10
