Key Information
We come to school everyday but how often to we actually notice what is outside the window as our bus travels here. Some views will be very familiar (usually the start and end of our journey) but what about the bits in between? We can often look at a view and identify the different features that they contains but can we identify the more important aspects of a view and explain how they contribute to the area?
We will be doing two things during this unit. Firstly we will be aiming to develop our understanding of Hong Kong by increasing our focus on our individual landscapes of experience to better understand the world directly around us. When we have achieved this we will be placing our learning in a global context by comparing our experience with other students of a similar age around the world. By drawing comparisons between our journey to school and those of others we can develop our understanding of the place we call home.
Finally, your learning in this unit will be combined between I&S and Languages to help your understanding of "place" and ability to communicate about different places.
