How do we know we are in Yorkshire?
To start off our geography topic (how we know we are in Yorkshire), this week we will be looking at some famous Yorkshire landmarks and recapping basic map skills.
1) Produce a travel brochure or Microsoft powerpoint on famous Yorkshire landmarks you could visit. These landmarks can be in either urban or rural places - do you know what these 2 words mean?). Why should people visit that place? Try to include details such as: where it is,how long it would take to get there from your house, how much it costs to visit and any other bits of information a tourist/explorer might want to know about these Yorkshire destinations.
2) Map skills 4 and 6 figure grid referencesDownload the following from the Rook’s Nest homework website
Work through the powerpoints and then complete the sheets to demonstrate your understanding of grid references.
Extension: Have a look at an Atlas or maps on the internet. Can you find famous landmarks/places in the UK/World and record their 4 or 6 figure grid reference number?

Art
Google search ‘Yorkshire Dales landscape artwork or paintings’’ and look at the different paintings/drawings. Which do you like/not like? Why?
After this google search: ‘jmw landscape artist yorkshire paintings’. This will bring up the work of Joseph Mallord William Turner an artist from the early 19th century who was famous for painting Yorkshire landscapes using watercolours. Again have a look at some of his work. Which do you like/not like? Why? Do you recognise any of the places painted?
Now have a go at creating your own landscape drawing. You can either have a go at copying a Yorkshire scene from the internet, a piece of Joseph Turner’s work, head out into the countryside and find one to draw and then paint (with your parents of course!) or you could even do your garden/street - as long as you enjoy doing it, it does not matter! You can always share your completed artwork with the Rooks Nest Twitter page if you wish! There are lots of videos on Youtube to help with painting using watercolours if you are unsure.
