Welcome to this Teachnet UK resource contributed by Anne Baron

This Teachnet UK project can be used as either a teaching aid or revision exercise for GCSE students. This self navigating project, powered by a PowerPoint presentation, takes you from the title page a choice of topics to revise/study ... then onto a short test.  Each one will automatically navigate back to the main menu.

Topics covered: Scale and Distance - Four Figure Grid References - Six Figure Grid References - Contour work - Map Symbols - Use of maps with photographs

Click 'start here' on the left hand menu
or the individual topic options underneath

or click to download all the Map Skill resources

[You may find that the links within the presentations
will not work until they have been downloaded and
saved locally, and the links restored]
