Write about a country in Europe
Read the guidance and do your own research. Then fill in the template with photos and information. You can pick from our photo bank, or import your own images.
Discussion points
- Can you describe the location of your chosen country within Europe using the four cardinal directions (North, East, South, and West)?
- Consider the human geography of your chosen country, e.g. population, culture, land use habits, and how these have changed over time.
- Consider the physical geography of your chosen country, e.g. the climate, key topographical features, and how these have changed over time in your chosen country.
Teaching tips:
Use this activity to consolidate knowledge of European countries. Interactive map of Europe can be used as a research tool to gather information before completing this writing template.
Children can enter their section headings, meaning they can tailor their project to appeal to their interests. Encourage children to consider both human and physical features of their chosen country. Challenge them to make comparisons with other countries, either in or out of Europe.
