Willow Class’s Virtual Holiday to Italy!

As part of Geography Awareness Week Willow Class undertook a virtual holiday.

We used the atlas to work out where we wanted to go and google maps to plan our activities.

Once we were on holiday we flew in our imaginary plane, visited the sites (virtually) and tried a variety of Italian foods. There were some mixed responses to the food but the pizza was definitely the favourite!

Chestnut Class – Geography Awareness week 2020

View Picture List

Chestnut class have really enjoyed Geography Awareness week. We took the opportunity to use an atlas to look at all the different countries in the world and to make it fun, we tried to find one for every letter of the alphabet. Also we looked at why countries have different flags and how they originated. Then we made a flag that represented us as an individual. They were very colourful!
