The idea for this worksheet is that the children select a country from Europe to research and fill in the geographical facts. For example, population, languages, land area, currency, religion etc. There is also a space for drawing and colouring in the flag and the background of the worksheet is a map of Europe, so children can also draw an arrow and/or colour in their chosen country. The worksheet helps children gain a broader perspective of the world and a chance to compare to their own country. It’s also a great starting point for a more in depth study of a particular country. The document is fully editable so you can change any information you please.

A crossword puzzle for reviewing the process of the water cycle. It’s A3 size so it’s great for pairs or small groups to work together on. You could always print as A4 if needs be though. Available as both an editable DOC and PDF. There are 28 question in total. Here are a few examples of the clues inside: A large body of fresh water. When water flows off a surface. Water as a solid. Floating chunks of ice in the sea. I see how far the children are able to get through it before letting them use their books to help out.

This fun activity lets children explore that classic deserted island scenario. It presents pictures of 16 items from which the children have to choose three to take with them to be stranded with. They must explain verbally or in writing why they have chosen these items. The children could even suggest why other items would not be worth having. It’s worth encouraging the children to think of alternate uses for the items they have chosen too. This works both as an individual activity and as a group activity to promote effective communication between members.

A record sheet for children to record different aspects of the weather during the school week. Includes an example day to give the children an idea on how to fill it in. The fully editable document includes spaces for temperature, wind speed and direction, cloud cover, precipitation and other types of weather. They could measure local weather conditions or find the information from a weather forecast or a mixture of the two. I selected different children to record the weather on different days. As a follow up activity, the data can then be graphed and analysed and compared to the climate records.

Instructions for colouring and labeling various parts of both ancient and modern Egypt. A blank map can easily be found on Google Images to go with this. The children in my class use both traditional atlases and Google Earth to complete the exercise. Afterwards they can add in illustrations or further locations of interest.

Through the classic game of Battleships, this activity will help reinforce the concept of (coordinates), specifically 4 and 6 digit grid-references in a fun way. There are two pages to this download. The first contains a 4-digit grid-reference game and a separate 6-digit game. The second page is the same setup, except their are more ships available to place on the board. Instructions: The idea is that each student in a pair gets a copy of the worksheet. They then place the designated ships on their grid using the letters. They may also colour them as well. Tip: Make sure they place all their ships on the grid and that they don’t split them up into pieces. Once the ships have been positioned, the first player will give a grid-reference to ‘bomb’. If they get a direct hit on one of the other players ships, the other player must say so and also tell what type of ship they hit. The first player can then mark on their own sheet whether it was a hit or miss. The first player to destroy all the enemy ships is the winner. My children really loved this game and it really does help them remember how to read grid-references and get quick at doing so! If you enjoy this activity, please kindly leave a review. Thank you.
