Our first geography lesson then focussed on ‘What are the features and processes of a river?’ We started by identifying the features including, river, mountains, mountain tops and land around the river.
After this we learnt that a river is divided into three main sections, the upper course, middle course and lower course. Can your child tell you which sections these are and what happens at each section.

We went on to learn about river meanders. During this lesson the children learnt that:
– All rivers have a source, mouth, upper course, middle course, lower course.
– All rivers have erosion and transportation.
– All rivers have meanders.
– The size of river features can be different.
What can you child tell you about their learning so far?
