Lesson 1: What are the Features of a Park?

Year 1/2 mixed-age geography lesson pack – What are the features of a park?

This Year 1/2 mixed-age geography lesson pack is part of our Glorious Geography scheme. Designed for mixed-age classes, it supports schools teaching Year 1 and Year 2 together while maintaining full national curriculum coverage.

The scheme has been adapted into a clear two-year cycle. In Cycle A, all pupils study one set of blocks. In Cycle B, they move on to a different set. This ensures pupils do not repeat the same content across KS1, while still building knowledge and skills over time.

What are the features of a park? forms part of the mixed-age sequence and can be used within the full scheme or adapted to suit your own curriculum planning.

Each lesson pack includes:

• An enquiry-based approach with opportunities to develop geographical understanding and fieldwork skills
• Comprehensive lesson plans with vocabulary, misconceptions, cross-curricular links, key questions and assessment opportunities
• Teacher knowledge and guidance to support confident teaching
• Editable PowerPoints that model the learning
• Differentiated worksheets and activities
