Unit 3 Grid references Unit introduction
Learner’s Book page 43
We will learn that the best way to find a place on a map is to place a grid over the map. Each column on the map will be represented by a letter. Each row on the map will be represented by a number. By finding where these two meet, learners can give an accurate answer to where a certain object will be found.
Teaching ideas and tips
Now that learners have the idea of a map as a plan view with objects shown by symbols the next step is ‘How to read a map’. The alpha numeric grid makes map reading easy. Resources
Maps with grids on to show the class. A-Z town and city maps are good examples. 68
