Name streets on a map - Worksheet

The worksheet is designed to educate children about the fundamental concept that every street has a unique name. Working collaboratively with a partner, students are encouraged to closely examine a provided map. Their task is to exercise creativity and an understanding of their surroundings by assigning names to five streets, labelled 1 through 5 on the map. This interactive exercise not only helps to reinforce their knowledge of street naming conventions but also serves as an engaging way to enhance their observational skills and geographical awareness.

Additionally, the activity prompts students to reflect on their knowledge of the United Kingdom and their local area. By using a local map, they explore how to locate and identify streets in the vicinity of their school. This practical application of mapping skills helps students to connect with their environment and understand the importance of street names in daily navigation and communication. The worksheet, created by Focus Education (UK) Ltd, is a valuable tool for building foundational geographic literacy among young learners.
