A School Walk - Introduction To Mapping
This resource helps students to create a map of their school to link in with HASS studies. Use this map to explore this school setting before venturing out to explore your own school and deciding how to create a map that details your school's layout.
Learning goals
- We are learning to identify activities in our local place on a map, e.g. medical, police, waste management, and suggesting the reasons for their location.
- We are learning to recognise natural, managed and constructed features of places, their location, how they change and how they can be cared for.
