In maths today, we have been learning all about coordinates and how we can use them to pinpoint exact locations. To practise this and get a better understanding of them, we had a classic game of Battleships, where children battled against each other to find the location of of one another’s ships on the grid!

In expedition this week, we have been looking at the structure of volcanoes and what it is that causes them to erupt. We also spent time locating some of the largest, most active volcanoes in the world and placing them onto a map. We noticed that many of the world’s volcanoes can be found on the edges of the tectonic plates that make up the Earth’s crust.
