Year 6 have enjoyed our geography unit on using different types of maps. The children can locate places using Google Earth and had the chance to use the measure tool to estimate and measure the perimeter of iconic buildings. We have found out about Ordnance survey maps and how to use 4 and 6 figure grid references- we used Purple Mash to use our map skills to locate cities in the UK and countries across Europe. We then created our own 3D contour maps to show height on a map- we will use these 3D islands to help us create our dinosaur narratives next week.
