Human Geography in IB MYP Grade 1 Geography

In IB MYP Grade 1 Geography, Human Geography gives foundational learners (ages 11–12) the chance to practise exploring where people live and investigating towns, cities and communities.

MYP Geography is assessed against four criteria (A: knowing and understanding, B: investigating, C: communicating and D: thinking critically). Regular practice with human geography builds the knowledge and skills those criteria reward.

Work through the worksheets, practice questions and revision resources at your own pace. Check your answers, then redo anything that felt tricky and explain each answer in your own words.

For teachers

Use human geography activities as a starter, homework or retrieval practice, and mix free and premium resources to differentiate.

Build a simple timeline or concept map for each unit. Seeing the whole picture on one page makes revision much faster.
