Children locate Enrich Phonics and Number markers by using their pictures. They then identify ‘one more’ and ‘one less’ for the numbers from the markers.
Children are verbally given a number between 1 and 20, which they then have to locate on one of the Enrich Phonics and Number markers. They then practice putting these numbers into short sequences.
On the Activity Sheet, each of the 15 Enrich Education Orienteering Control Markers is linked to a Commonwealth country. The name of the country has several missing letters.
Children locate the control points using their Enrich School Orienteering Map.
When they locate a control point, the missing letters in the country’s name are included in the letters on the control marker.
The number above each missing letter shows which letter from the marker should be used (ie 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th letter).
Children use the letters from the marker to complete the country’s name on their Activity Sheet.
They do this at each control point until they have completed the names of all 15 countries.
Children will work individually or in small groups. Activity can be teacher lead.
Each group will be given an Enrich School Orienteering Map with a range of control marker numbers clearly highlighted (10).
Children will navigate around the course and scan the QR codes on the markers that they locate. Answers and observations will be recorded on their activity sheet

Activity Plan World Book Day Interactive Orienteering Book Trail
Children work in a small grouop to plan a circuit which starts/finishes at one of the markers and incorporates several other markers.
The size of their circuit should add up to 1 mile when completed a set number of times.
They must measure the size of potential circuits by measuring the distance in cm between individual markers on their Enrich School Orienteering map and then converting this to metres, using the scale on their map.
