Year 2 Geography: Shirley field study

We enjoyed a wonderful day on our geography field study trip to Shirley. First stop was the brilliant new library to see how the new building at Park Gate had changed the geography of the park area. We saw the part computers play in the running of the library; this fitted in with our Digital Literacy unit in Computing where we've been looking at technology in our lives.

After that, we recorded images and sounds of the park's human and physical geographical features, and made audio notes by using the amazing Book Creator app on the iPads.

Although most of us had been to Shirley Park before, looking at its Geography certainly helped us to see it and appreciate it in a new way.
