Key Stage 2 (Years 3–6) · Geography

Rivers and the water cycle

Pupils learn the processes of the water cycle including evaporation, condensation, precipitation and collection, and how rivers form, flow and shape landscapes through erosion, transportation and deposition. They identify river features such as source, mouth, tributary, meander and floodplain, and consider human uses and flood management.
