Year 2 have begun an exciting new Geography unit where we will be comparing our local area, Blackpool, with Luxor in Egypt. The children are already full of curiosity and eager to learn more about different places around the world!

To start our learning, we recapped what we already knew about continents and oceans 🌎💡. The children worked together to create a fun ‘jigsaw’ activity, carefully matching the continents to the correct maps 🧩. This helped us to refresh our understanding in an interactive way.

We then used atlases to support our learning, locating and labelling the continents and oceans on a world map 🗺️. The children showed great teamwork and problem-solving skills as they explored where different places are in the world.

A fantastic start to our new topic—we can’t wait to learn more about how Blackpool and Luxor compare! 🌟
