This afternoon in our expedition lesson, we researched Svalbard and the UK to find information such as population, weather/seasons, agriculture and education. We then sorted the pictures into our Venn diagram to show the similarities and difference of the human and physical features of the UK and Svalbard, Norway. We were then able to unpick why these similarities and differences might occur. We came up with some great reasons such as “the climate in Svalbard is colder because it is closer to the North Pole” and “there are physical features such as glaciers and icecaps which the UK doesn’t have”
