    I found it very useful and the children engaged in the lesson and they enjoyed using a map to locate the world mountain ranges. It is a super resource!

    We used the whole scheme and absolutely loved it. My teaching partner lacks confidence in Geography and even she enjoyed teaching this topic. The activities and resources are engaging and challenging, and the planning is user-friendly and thorough. I really felt like our classes had made clear progress at the end of the topic. I wish this existed for all of our topics!
