Summary: Abstract: This article describes the use of the “powerful knowledge” concept in geography education in primary schools. First, the concept of powerful knowledge is briefly introduced in the context of building geographical thinking. Next, we describe four key geographical concepts: place, space, environment, and interconnection. The main part of the article describes the possibilities of applying these four key concepts to teaching. We further specify individual concepts using generalizations (big ideas). For each of the key concepts, there are also tips for learning tasks that can be used to develop these concepts.
