Concept: Natural, Managed and Man-made Features

I am learning to identify natural and man-made features in our environment.

I know I can do it when I have identified some natural and man-made features.



This week we are going to learn about some different features in our environment. We can classify our environment into three categories, by their different features:  

Natural 

Man-made  

Managed  

Today we are going to focus on natural and man-made features.   

Watch this video to learn more. 

  

Natural Features – Are part of the land. They have not been created by humans.  

Man-made Features – Have been created by humans.  

Managed Features – Are natural features that are managed and maintained by people.

Your task today is to see if you can find some examples of natural and man-made features in your local environment.  

You may want to go for a walk with your family to spot some of these features.  

OR  

You could have a discussion and a brainstorm with your mum, dad or another family member.  

You will need to:  

• Open your scrapbook and write the date at the top.  
• Write the heading ‘natural or man-made’. 
• Copy this table (the first two have been done for you):
