FPP - Google maps

In my class, we are working on the topic: "Hooray... Let's go on a holiday!". One of our geography tasks was to look at different ways people travel to their holiday destinations.

As a carpet activity, we looked at how we might find out the methods of transport for our favourite holiday destinations. Google maps helped us do this by showing the children the distance between Middleton (where our school is) and the holiday destination. We then looked at the travelling options and discussed the best way to travel.

Here are some examples:

Middleton to Blackpool

Middleton to Disneyland Paris
