It illustrates a clear educational roadmap, starting with foundational concepts like farms and transport in early years, and gradually expanding to complex geographical terminology, including UK geography, global continents, oceans, climate zones, and ecological concepts. The curriculum is designed to help children develop a deep understanding of both their immediate local environment in Cotmanhay and the wider world, ensuring that each academic year builds cumulatively upon previously acquired knowledge. The framework serves as a guide for educators to systematically introduce key terminology related to physical and human features, world mapping, and environmental systems.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/","Exam",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/key-vocabulary-in-geography-curriculum-progression/493807/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/key-vocabulary-in-geography-curriculum-progression/493807.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Mia
