Year 7 ... Geography MAPS!!!!

Dear Year 7s,

I hope you find Geography interesting, I know you are noticing lots of changes from primary to secondary, but the sooner you get use to the changes, the better. During this first term I am teaching you about making and mapping connections and trying to teach you how to develop geographical skills and tools that you will use in the future. We have learnt about plans, scales, mental maps, sketch maps, real maps, grid references, OS maps, measuring distances between two places on a map, following directions, compass directions, etc

Here you have a very interesting link with information about maps. You can understand this information better as we have explained most of the information in our lessons. Do you see the importance of learning different subjects in the school? :-)
