This week, Primary 4 were let loose in the local area!
Our current topic is land use and we wanted to find out how the land around the school had been used. We had a very handy tour guide in Mrs Stanton (who loved using the line ‘When I was a wee girl…’) and found out a lot about how the area had changed in the not so distant past!
We found lots of different land uses in the local area:
- Housing (old and new)
- Recreation (the golf course, parks, the bowling club, football park)
- Development (site of the old school)
- Country park/woodland
- Shops and services (newsagents, hairdresser’s, pubs and restaurants, dentist, Scotmid, car garages)
- Houses of local celebrities (Mrs Stanton, Mrs Adie)
- Industry (Houston Industrial Estate, Dobie’s)
- Education (the school)
I remember when I had that topic it is AMAZING. đŸ™‚
I loved your assembly
Sounds good fun fantastic
Hi Primary 4,
It sounds like you have had a great time learning more about your local community. I’m looking forward to looking at your big map – maybe you could point out a few of the areas of interest to me?
