For the last few weeks in mathes we have been working on map reading. We needed to decide a route around the castles in Scotland starting and ending in Dumfries. My route was from Dumfries to Ayr to Stirling to Falkirk to Mull to Edinbrugh to Stonehaven to Kinross and back to Dumfries. The skills I was using were map reading, measuring in cms and using a scale.

In maths Decartes have been using UK atlases. We have been traveling to all the famous castles in Scotland on the atlases, to see who took the shortest in Km and who got the least money. I got 950km and £115. This is the skills I used doing the task I can read a map, I can measure accurately in centimeters, I can use a scale to convert in to kilometers, I can add decimals.

In maths we have been using atlases to show the shortest route to different castles in Scotland. From Falkirk to Mull to Kinross and to Dumfries. My personal route took 760KM and cost £76 plus £20 boat fair. We were measuring the atlases every centimeter equaled 20 kilometer.
