Shape in Maths

Local Geography - Where in the world do we live?

This week, we have been exploring 'Where in the word do we live?' We used Google Earth on the ipads to explore our local area and identify key features, making links between what we can see from above and what we see on the ground using the street view. We then used an ariel print out of our school and the local community to identify as many features that we could. We loved using Google Earth!
