Memory Maps (Outside with 7E)

Despite experiencing yet another wet and wild period in our local weather, I find myself praying for rain before Mr Jackson (site manager) discovers the remains of what was quite an active Y7 mapping lesson. Following an introduction to 'memory maps,' the pupils had the chance to walk around school and visualise the building and its surroundings for 5mins. They then teamed up with nothing more than a piece of chalk and the images in their memory, and were asked to draw the school plan on the new tarmac. Hence why I am now attempting a rain dance as we speak to help clear away the chalky depictions.

Some work is below, and interestingly enough the Y10s on lunch used the pictures for some good old hopscotch!

PS. Apologies for the chalk lines left on the ground, although a couple of days will see them erode away with our appalling weather!
