Check understanding
- Sort photos of local features into natural (creek, hill), managed (park, farm, garden) and constructed (road, school, shops)
- Locate local places on a simple map of the neighbourhood and describe where they are with position words (e.g. 'the park is next to the library')
- Explain why a park is a managed feature (people plant and look after it) even though it contains natural plants
“On a walk around your neighbourhood, can your child point out natural things like a creek, looked-after places like a park, and built things like roads and shops?”
