Playground Designer Assessment
This assessment is designed to be used near the completion of the What Are the Different Features of Places Unit. As students plan and design a new playground for their school, they will demonstrate their understanding of natural, managed and constructed features. They will also demonstrate their understanding of pictorial maps.
You may require more than 1 session for students to complete this task.
Learning goals
- We are learning to recognise natural, managed and constructed features of places, their location, how they change and how they can be cared for.
- 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.
