Y2 planned to go to West Park in Jarrow yesterday to observe the local area and think how we can design a map and key for the park. However, due to icy weather and freezing temperatures, we kept the learning rolling in the classroom and used Google Earth to help us design our maps.
The children used a birds eye view of the park, creating a key and map symbols to help plan their maps on whiteboards. The children then transferred their final product onto A3 paper.
We had an amazing, creative morning and we are incredibly proud of their work!
