Name: Enrich Education Name
Address: Westvale Primary School, Melverley Road, Kirkby, Merseyside, L32 0RQ, United Kingdon

Pupils use their Enrich school orienteering maps to locate specific control points. At each one, they record the four numbers from the control marker, creating numbers with 2 decimal places. They use these to either round to the nearest whole number or the nearest 1 decimal place.

Summary

Pupils use the Enrich school orienteering map to locate their starting point and specific control points and fill in the four numbers from the control marker. The Activity Sheets include a decimal point between the 1^st/2^nd and 3^rd/4^th numbers, so that pupils create a number with two decimal places.
Using the numbers that they create, pupils then have to round up/down to the nearest whole number or to the nearest 1 decimal place.
