Learning goals
- We are learning to use simple scales, legends and directions to interpret grid reference systems to locate and describe positions and pathways.
- We are learning to use simple scales, legends and directions to interpret information contained in basic maps.
- We are learning to construct a grid coordinate system and use coordinates and directional language to locate and describe positions.
- We are learning to use a grid reference system to describe locations, describe routes using landmarks and directional language.
