The Oxford First Atlas Teacher's Handbook provides practical guidance on how to use the Oxford First Atlas. The Teacher's Handbook helps teachers to support pupils learning about key geographical concepts and developing early map and atlas skills. It includes learning objectives for each page of the atlas, key concepts and vocabulary, activity ideas and links to other aspects of the curriculum. The Oxford First Atlas is a brightly illustrated and informative first atlas for young learners in their first years at school. It introduces pupils to key geographical themes and topics, including coasts, rivers, mountains, towns, travel and the environment, and develops early map concepts and atlas skills. It encourages pupils to talk and learn about maps and places. The Oxford First Atlas is also accompanied by the Activity Book for independent work, the Teacher's Handbook for practical page-by-page guidance on using the atlas, and the e-Atlas CD-ROM for whole class display on interactive whiteboard.
