+ MY LISTBegin your journey through the human and physical geography of London with our unforgettable set of lessons for the classroom (free to download www.londoneye.com/schools).

1.    Identify key facts about London’s location and describe some of London’s landmarks and tourist attractions with a game of Landmark Detective Files

2.    Get creative as your class considers the positive and negative impact of tourism followed by a proposal and a 3D model for their very own attraction

Then plan the educational visit and take flight as you journey 135m high and observe London’s iconic landscape from your classroom in the sky! Schools can also consider booking a KS2 and KS3 Discover the Skyline workshop where our education host will bring to life the locations, history and architecture of London’s landmarks.

Finally finish back in the classroom with a compare and contrast ‘changing skylines’ activity which includes creating a detailed map of London.
