Description

This unit teaches pupils about Russia's climate and biomes and how this affects its population. Pupils will also learn about Russia's natural resources and how this affects its relations with other countries around the world.

This unit teaches pupils about the physical and human geography of Russia and allows them to consider Russia's role in world affairs. Pupils will draw on their knowledge of climate, forest biomes and glaciers to understand Russia's physical geography and will use their knowledge of population and natural resources to help understand Russia's international relations. Through studying this unit at this stage pupils can see how geography helps us understand current global issues and allows us to analyse future possibilities.
