This document shows which units cover the individual knowledge and skills statements in our Geography curriculum and accompanies our Geography: Progression of skills and knowledge.
Both of these documents are for use by schools who use our Geography: Long-term plan — mixed-age.
A Knowledge organiser that captures the essential knowledge and skills learnt throughout the mixed-age unit History, Y1/2 (B), What is history?
This resource is designed to introduce pupils to the concept of history by helping them explore their own past and understand the difference between past and present. It features a personalised timeline beginning with “the year I was born” through key milestones like “first birthday party” and “first day of school”, culminating in “now”. Supporting images and keywords such as memory, living memory, holiday, past, and present aid pupils in identifying events that shape personal and collective history. This resource lays the foundation for historical thinking through relatable, everyday experiences.
A Knowledge Organiser that captures the essential knowledge and skills learnt throughout the unit Geography, Y1/2 (B), Where am I?
This resource is designed to help pupils build foundational geographical understanding by exploring maps, aerial photographs, and the use of directional language. It introduces key locational terms such as left, right, behind, close to, and in front of, along with concepts like aerial photograph and map symbols. The UK map is included to familiarise pupils with the four nations and key geography skills. This resource supports early spatial awareness and positional vocabulary, fostering pupils’ confidence in describing location and direction in their local environment.
A Knowledge organiser that captures the essential knowledge and skills learnt throughout the unit Geography, Year 1/2, Cycle A, What Can You See at the Coast?
This Geography resource is designed to support the pupils as they explore coastal environments and their key physical and human features. It introduces key vocabulary such as beach, cliff, harbour, tide, and erosion, helping the pupils understand how coastal landscapes are formed and how they change over time. The pupils will also learn about different coastal habitats, wildlife, and the impact of human activity on the coast.
A Knowledge Organiser that captures the essential knowledge and skills learnt throughout the unit French, Year 3/4 (A), Shopping for French food.
This resource is designed to support pupils as they explore key vocabulary and sentence structures related to shopping experiences in French. It introduces names of common shops (e.g. la boulangerie, le marché, la crêperie), numbers from 20 to 60, and grammatical rules for using “to the”, “a/an”, and “it/them” in French. Example sentences such as “J’achète une pomme et je la mange” help pupils apply vocabulary in real-world contexts. Ideal for reinforcing pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary in an engaging and culturally relevant setting.
This progression of skills and knowledge document is for those schools following our Design and technology and Art and design: Long-term plan – mixed-age.
Please note that schools must subscribe to both Art and design and Design and technology to have access to all the units referenced in this document.
*Now updated to reflect the newly published Drawing units*
This document is a mixed-age version of our very popular long term planning, which allows schools to alternate between the teaching of Design and technology and Art and design half-termly.
Please note that schools must subscribe to both Art and Design and Design and technology subjects to have access to all the units referenced in this plan.
For mixed-age settings, we have organised the units into two-year cycles, ensuring that progression is still appropriate, no matter the order that children experience Cycle A and Cycle B.
To accompany this document, we have produced a DT and Art: Progression of skills and knowledge- Mixed-age.
This document gives an overview of the skills and knowledge covered in each phase and strand of the Kapow Primary Science scheme of work for mixed-aged classes.
