Soil and stone Experiencing different landscapes (beaches, hills, forests, fields).

Soil and stone Experiencing different landscapes (beaches, hills, forests, fields). Research how the local landscapes were formed, and how they are still changing. Children can share this with each other e.g. by a guided visualisation in which the children are all lying down with Eyes closed, and we 'zoom' back in time and then slowly visualise how our landscape was formed.
