Build confident map readers with this visual, colourful and ready-to-teach Geography PowerPoint for Year 7. Pupils use eight-point compass directions, give and read four- and six-figure grid references, measure straight and curved distances with scale, and recognise hills, valleys, ridges and steep slopes from contour lines. Clear worked examples, an OS symbols slide and a misconceptions slide fix the errors that cost marks, such as northings before eastings. Two interactive, hands-on activities, a grid-reference treasure hunt and a contour cross-section challenge, work with any OS map extract. A planning-a-walk challenge links scale to speed and time. Non-specialist friendly and ideal as a cover lesson, with a closing slide showing how the skills build towards GCSE Geography.
