Mapping project.


We decided to run a workshop that would get the kids to think about using ‘maps’ imaginatively. The kids experimented in drawing maps through a sequence of pictures whilst exploring ways of portraying ‘time’ in a visual way.

The activity gave the kids an opportunity to illustrate their day-to-day lives in a creative way and gave us the chance to gain a greater understanding of the their lives’.
To introduce the concept of time and mapping we ran a number of warm-up games such as what time is it Mr wolf and used interactive time charts in order for the kids to discuss a ‘typical day’ for them.
