What you define as your place, will vary between different individuals.

Today we are going to attempt to define your place.

Is this the same as Ilkeston?

On the map, you need to begin by putting coloured dots, or stickers, on the places that have special meaning to you.

Home would be a good start!

Make sure you include an annotated key on the back of your map.

What is this place and why is it special?

When you have located as many places as possible, join the outer points with solid lines.

Then shade the area that you have enclosed.

This is your place.

Finally, give your map the title ‘My Place’.

What problems did we face in our attempt to define our place?

• Some of us may have been limited by the map!

•The area we defined, may include places that we have no associated with- the map is not

the territory.
