Lesson details
Key learning points
- ‘Journey sticks’ help us remember what we saw during a fieldtrip.
- Sequencing photographs helps recall of a journey and places visited.
- Geographers make maps to show what places are like and to show routes.
- Models or maps made from memory are not usually very accurate, but show what is important to the maker.
Common misconception
You don't need to sequence images or photographs you took on your route.
Sequencing photographs (keeping them in the correct order) helps us to remember a route correctly and helps us find the correct end point (destination).
