Investigating marine litter
In this Geography video, teachers are introduced to enquiry-led fieldwork that helps the children understand how to care for marine environments. The video supports delivering a real-world investigation linked to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, encouraging environmental responsibility and developing data-handling skills.
Teachers explore practical classroom and outdoor approaches that empower the children to take positive action, such as reducing plastic use, promoting recycling and supporting sustainable consumption. The video also guides pupils in collecting and representing data using tally charts, sketch maps and digital mapping, adaptable to locations such as beaches, rivers, lakes or ponds.
This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Geography fieldwork videos and and supports cross-curricular links with Sustainability topics.
