using atlases to identify where hull is

This week in geography, Year 3 have been using atlases.

We have begun to identify countries in Europe with the use of an atlas. We could identify England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland independently. We then began to find France, Belgium and The Netherlands as these are the countries which are closest to Hull.

We can use our atlas and our knowledge of compass points to find European countries which are north, south, east or west in relation to where Hull is.

We enjoyed using the atlases and worked together to identify lots of European countries.
