YEAR 7 GEOGRAPHY 4 FIGURE GRID REFERENCES INTRODUCTORY

This activity will help you to support your child to... Read and write four-figure grid references using an Ordnance Survey map.

Map courtesy of the Ordnance Survey- Read this explanation... Ordnance Survey maps are covered by numbered grids. These help us pinpoint places more easily. Map courtesy of the Ordnance Survey- http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/oswebsite/getamap/

If a place is given a number, 4323, it is called a grid reference. The first two digits (43) are called the Eastings, they found along the bottom and top of a map. The second two digits (23) are called the Northings, they are found along the side of the map. Read this explanation...

To find the grid reference 4421- First place a finger on line 44 of the Eastings. Place a second finger on line 21 of the Northings. Draw your fingers together, the square you are looking for is North-East of where the two lines cross. Read this explanation...

Note the four figure grid references of the five coloured dots below. Try this activity...
