Comparing the Scandinavian countries

What an interesting lesson, where the children compared the physical geography of: Norway, Sweden and Denmark. 

First, using a topography map, they identified that Norway is a very mountainous area, whereas Sweden has mountains in the west but the rest are fairly flat and Denmark is very low-lying and often floods as a result.

Then, the children looked at the different physical geography in Norway and they were amazed by the size of the glaciers and fjords. In fact, four children have visited Norway and they described their experiences to the class. So interesting.
