Unit 4: Going to the seaside Section 5: Where else in the world can we have a seaside holiday? Objectives Children should learn:to use secondary sources to find out information •to develop awareness of the wider world •about the nature of places •about the effects of weather on people and their surroundings

Activities:•Divide the children into groups and ask each group to use travel brochures to identify between six and eight seaside places around the world. •Ask the children to talk about places they would like to visit. •Ask the children to write a report about different seaside places.

Outcomes – children:•find places and plot them on a map •find out and record in which countries different places are

•Literacy: before children write a report on different seaside places, they will need to know how to organise and present ideas. This could be done by highlighting the characteristic language use and structure of travel brochures.
