Activity: The activity was based on our camp that is coming up next term. The task was to work out the distances and travel times for various parts of our travel. The mapping included both roads and walking tracks. Reflection: The children started making some good comparisons ans started exploring a range of options to get to the endpoints. Relationships between distance to travel and time it takes to get from one place to another developed. Awareness to names and points of interest were established.
