A key stage 3 curriculum map that shows the sequence of the content covered in the KS3 curriculum available at my shop. It also contains the curriculum narrative for the course. This KS3 curriculum has been carefully sequenced to promote long term retention of knowledge. By sequencing the topics carefully, retrieval and recall become part of the day to day learning, and students become aware of they way geographical topics are interlinked. This KS3 curriculum fulfills the requirements of the national curriculum and provides a balance of human and physical topics. Every unit that has been created with the aim of enhancing student’s ability to thrive in their understanding of the key geographical concepts of place, space, scale, interdependence, physical processes, environmental interaction, sustainable development, cultural understanding and diversity. These are important as they will help our students have a better understanding of the wider world around them, how it functions and the implications human actions are having on the natural world.
