In Year One this half term our Geography topic is road safety. In class we have been talking about the importance of staying safe near roads. We decided we needed to know how to tell if a road was busy. We compiled our ideas which were looking at the road, listening to the noise of the traffic and finally by counting how many cars were on it. We used a carefully designed chart to record any cars, buses, bikes, vans, lorries and motorcycles that passed. In partners one person took the role of observer (looker) whilst the other recorded the findings (ticker). We really enjoyed counting the traffic and we made a graph of what we found.
