Fascinating Fact:

Trees change during the year, they grow leaves, flowers, and then lose leaves.

In KS1 Geography, children learn that places can change slowly or quickly. They notice how seasons, weather, buildings, and nature all change over time and think about why those changes happen.

  • Change: When something becomes different from how it was before.
  • Season: One part of the year, such as spring, summer, autumn, or winter.
  • Environment: The world around us, including land, plants, animals, and buildings.
What does change mean in KS1 geography?

In KS1 geography, change means how a place becomes different over time. This might be new houses being built, trees growing, or a park looking different in each season.

How can KS1 children spot changes in their local area?

KS1 children can spot changes by going on short walks, drawing what they see, taking photos at different times of year, and comparing how buildings, plants, and playgrounds look.

Why is learning about change important in geography?

Learning about change helps children understand that places are not fixed. It shows how weather, seasons, and people’s choices can affect homes, streets, and the natural environment.
