We started this week with a walk round our local area as an introduction to our new, mini topic for the rest of this term. We are going to be looking at what makes a community and in particular looking at our own community of Cults.

The children were all very busy trying to identify different types of houses as well as what other buildings were used for. They recorded on their sheets as well as using iPads to take photos of things that they felt were important to our area or were interesting to them. Some followed our walk on the maps we had taken with us. Back in class we looked at Google maps to plot our route and also investigated the area on Google Earth getting a different perspective from an aerial view.

Again thank you to the parents who came with us and made our walk possible.
