A quick Co-ordinates starter activity. Choose a kid to give a co-ordinate, you *click* that square, and a symbol will appear. Either a dolphin, shark, treasure chest, coin piles or a 'nothing symbol'. There are two variations, depending on how much time you have. A 6x4 grid or a 8x6 grid. (Note: If you want to edit the map to use a second time: Make sure you move the square behind as well as the picture.)

A simple world map Starter Question introducing the idea of co-ordinates with longitude and latitude.

These printables will help your children to reinforce their learning when it comes to directions. There are printables that help children to think of the directions up, down, left and right. Have your child find their way from the ship to the lighthouse around the maze and then write down the directions they took to get there. You can also use the cardinal directions of North, South, East and West. Then your child can follow the directions given by the arrows to navigate around a grid and land on different coloured squares. Your child will navigate around a nautical themed map to end up at different points then write their own directions using the four main compass point directions. Finally, help your child understand co-ordinates by having them follow the co-ordinates to draw a line to discover the shape in each grid.
