We've learned that every continent has a desert and how their biomes differ. Currently, we are studying the Mojave Desert which is located across 4 states (California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona) in the United States of America. We have studied the climate of this desert, its physical and human features, and what kind of animals populate it. Fantastic work Year 5! ### Y5 Geography Desert Physical features [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/processed-1C1D66DC-C32D-46F2-A256-128B98BFF99A.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/processed-1C1D66DC-C32D-46F2-A256-128B98BFF99A.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/processed-2D15B455-3987-4710-9A97-DDBA8D1D0EA5.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/processed-2D15B455-3987-4710-9A97-DDBA8D1D0EA5.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/processed-690D010A-844C-47CE-ADAB-E83B09970A07.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/processed-690D010A-844C-47CE-ADAB-E83B09970A07.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/processed-A6FC4BED-2989-44E4-9FD2-10863F427516.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/processed-A6FC4BED-2989-44E4-9FD2-10863F427516.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/processed-C8992296-E657-4AC0-A1FF-EFB9E2B8F7CA.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/processed-C8992296-E657-4AC0-A1FF-EFB9E2B8F7CA.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/thumbnail_image0.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/thumbnail_image0.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/thumbnail_image1.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/thumbnail_image1.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/thumbnail_image2.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/y5-geography-desert-physical-features/thumbnail_image2.jpg) [Year 5](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/year-5) [Geography](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/geography) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/IMG_0844.JPG)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2024-01-05-13-43-11-y2-art) Previous ### [Y2- Art](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2024-01-05-13-43-11-y2-art) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/IMG_4370%5B1%5D.JPG)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2024-01-05-15-50-13-y3-geography-longitude-and-latitude) Next ### [Y3 Geography: longitude and latitude](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2024-01-05-15-50-13-y3-geography-longitude-and-latitude) ### School Life - [Brookside Blog ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog) - [News](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/news) - [Events](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/events) - [Photograph Galleries ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/photo-galleries) - [School Council](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/school-council) - [After-School Clubs ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/after-school-clubs) - [KIDZ Club](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/kidz-club) - [Calendar](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/calendar) - [Newsletters](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/information-for-parents/newsletters-2026-2027) - [Mental Health ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/mental-health) ##### Location Rostherne Avenue Great Sutton Cheshire CH66 2EE ##### Contact Us 0151 558 1123 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/brooksideprimary/) © Copyright 2014–2026 Brookside Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
