Allotment

Project Overview

Develop children’s knowledge of plants, agriculture and where food comes from with our pre-planned, comprehensively resourced Year 5 geography project, Allotment. Our high-quality teaching resources help children learn about plant reproduction, cooking, nutrition and land use across the world.

It is built upon our four-stage primary focused pedagogyEngage, Develop, Innovate, Express – to get your children curious about the project ahead, develop and then use new skills and knowledge, before finally allowing them to express their thoughts, ideas and reflections on what they have learnt.

*This project is part of the Cornerstones Geography Curriculum and is not sold separately.
