Activities you could do at home:

Walking and memory activity

Combine your daily walks with memory and artistic activities. Map your walk, which could be one you recently remember walking, your route to school, from a family holiday. You could also record what you remember seeing on your walk, such as physical and human features, geographical vocabulary such as roads, buildings, parks and houses. 

Exploring my home

Draw a physical map of your house, street or local area, consider what it is like and how you could change it for the better.

Mapping my home

Design and create a model of the layout (plan view) of your home and think about what you would change if you could. Create a key with symbols and label it.

My Room

Create an imaginary landscape in your bedroom and think about what you might find happening across it's physical and human elements.

Observation Window

Make detailed observations of what you can ‘see’ every day and what might cause that view to change.
