Lesson 3 |
|
To use eight points of a compass
Cardinal directions are probably the most important directions in geography: north, south, east and west. These directions help us orient ourselves wherever we are. ... You can use a magnetic compass, which uses the Earths magnetic field, to figure out where you are or in which direction you want to go. |
Mr Measure and his son go to the woods and follow the instructions on a map. The viewer is then asked to draw the map of their route using a 1cm to 1m scale.

Lesson 4 |
|
What are maps? Why do we use them? Have you got any maps at home? Maps present information about the world in a simple, visual way. They teach about the world by showing sizes and shapes of countries, locations of features, and distances between places. |
1. Create your own map of a community using the different pictures. 2. Write a set of instructions to five different locations on your map for a friend to follow. 3. Remember you need to use directional language to direct your friend. |
Lesson 5 |
|
Why do we need map symbols? Maps use symbols to label real-life features and make the maps clearer. With so many features on a map, there would not be enough space to label everything with text. Symbols can be small pictures, letters, lines or coloured areas to show features like campsites, pubs or bus stations |
