Greensleeves


Where would you site this ice cream van to make the most profit on a sunny day.
Work out the time wasted spent travelling from one place to another if you are going to move through the day...
Think about the demographics of your customers...

Theme Park Geography

We are preparing to teach a unit on Theme Park Geography for the first time in the coming term, which was shared with us by Garry Simmons and Elen Harris, and can be downloaded by Teaching Geography subscribers / GA members from this link here.
There are some excellent resources to download, and we will be adding a few extras to connect it with our location and students, and the way that we generally introduce and develop student work.
Here's a nice video to get students into the mood as they enter the classroom....
