Description
A brand new reference atlas for young Primary School geographers aged 7-11 years published in association with the Geographical Association.
This atlas has topographical based mapping which helps the young geographer understand the processes which take place during the formation of the earth's landscapes. The atlas has been designed specifically as an introductory reference atlas for 7-11 year olds studying geography at Keystage 2.
The reference mapping is designed for maximum clarity and accessibility, and is supported with photographs and data files, with detailed map keys and scale information on each map. Specially selected topic maps give additional information linking to knowledge and understanding of distant places.
The atlas is organised into sections covering the UK, Europe, the World and Continents with larger scale maps of countries and regions popular for focus studies. A variety of carefully selected scales are used to allow for comparison of size and distance in different countries.
