Scotland: Fact Cards (Posters/Display) | EYFS & KS1 Printables

Bring the fascinating world of Scotland to life in your classroom with our vibrant Scotland Fact Cards! Perfect for EYFS and KS1 children, this engaging printable pack offers a brilliant way to introduce key facts about Scotland in an accessible and visually appealing format.

Designed for Preschool, Nursery, School, or for Parents and Childminders learning at home, these fact cards are ideal for sparking curiosity, enriching displays, and supporting early learning about geography, history, and famous Scottish inventions.

(Note: Please use your own discretion and knowledge of your children to ensure appropriateness of each activity suggested on this page and safety concerning any materials given and activity undertaken.)

    • Eight fact cards with the Scottish Saltire (flag) as a subtle background on each. They feature clear, age-appropriate information on:

      • Scotland's population (≈ 5.4 million people)

      • The largest city (Glasgow)

      • The capital city (Edinburgh)

      • How long people have lived in Scotland (12,000 years)

      • How long Scotland has been part of Great Britain (over 300 years)

      • Scottish inventions: the Telephone (Alexander Graham Bell), the Bicycle (Kirkpatrick Macmillan & Thomas McCall), and the Television (John Logie Baird)

      • A Scottish discovery: Penicillin (Alexander Fleming), a very important medicine!

    • One sheet of two blank cards: Providing creative opportunities for children to draw their own Scottish facts, or for you to add personalised content relevant to your specific learning objectives.

  • Our Scotland Fact Cards are incredibly versatile and can be used in a multitude of ways across various early years and KS1 environments:

    • Preschool, Nursery & Childminder Settings:

      • Visual Aid: Display the full-colour fact cards around your setting to create an immersive Scottish theme.

      • Discussion Starters: Use individual cards to prompt conversations about the simple facts, like numbers (population), city names, or the idea of an invention.

    • Reception Class (EYFS):

      • Topic Introduction: Introduce a 'Scotland' topic by exploring one or two fact cards each day, building knowledge gradually.

      • Literacy Link: Point to the words and numbers on the cards, helping children with early word recognition and understanding of non-fiction text.

      • Interactive Display: Place cards at eye level for children to touch, point to, and discuss. Use the blank cards for children to draw their favourite Scottish element or a simple picture of an invention.

    • KS1 Classes (Year 1 & Year 2 School):

      • Classroom Display: Create an informative and visually appealing display about Scotland, perhaps as part of a UK geography or history unit.

      • Research Prompts: Use the fact cards as a starting point for children to conduct further simple research on specific facts (e.g., "Find out more about how a telephone works").

      • Writing Prompts: Children can use the facts as inspiration for short sentences, questions, or labels for their own drawings. They can also use the blank cards to write their own new facts.

      • Speaking and Listening: Encourage children to choose a fact card and share what they've learned with a partner or the class, reinforcing their understanding of numbers and key historical information.

  • EYFS Framework:

    • Understanding the World (The World): Expands children's knowledge of countries and cultures, specifically introducing them to key aspects of Scotland's geography, population, and historical presence.

    • Communication and Language: Encourages discussion, vocabulary development related to Scotland, and answering simple questions about the facts.

    • Literacy (Comprehension & Word/Number Recognition): Supports understanding of non-fiction information and recognition of familiar words and numbers on the cards.

    • Expressive Arts and Design (if using blank cards): Provides opportunities for children to draw their own facts and express their understanding visually.

  • KS1 Curriculum:

    • Geography: Develops knowledge about the United Kingdom, specifically identifying Scotland, its capital and largest city, and its population.

    • History (Significant Individuals/Events): Introduces famous Scottish inventors and discoverers (Alexander Graham Bell, Alexander Fleming, etc.) and highlights the longevity of human settlement in Scotland.

    • English (Non-fiction comprehension & Speaking and Listening): Children can retrieve information from the cards, read simple non-fiction text, and present their findings clearly.

    • Maths (Number and Place Value): Opportunities to read and understand large numbers like 5.4 million, 12,000, and 300 in a real-world context.

    • Art and Design (if using blank cards): Opportunities to illustrate their own facts, exploring drawing techniques.
