Analysing the data
Today you will use Google Tours to view the Mungabareena Reserve and Noreuil Park sites and to take notes on the history of the areas before visiting them on Wednesday the 4th March.
Once you have gathered some background information on each of the areas, you will need to research and take notes on the development plans for the areas. Use the buttons below to help your searching.
Lesson 2: Practicing Fieldwork
Today we will practice using fieldwork to answer a question. This is an important skill in Geography, as we need to collect data on the world in order to find out answers and see patterns.
QUESTION: Which area of the school has the most rubbish in seating areas?
HYPOTHESIS: Write which area/(s) you feel will have the most rubbish and why you believe this.

Management Strategies
1. In your same area as you did before, look around you at the changes that have been made to the school.
2. In the table on your sheet, write down any changes that have been made in either the recreation, aesthetics (looks) or safety columns.
3. Once finished, head back to the classroom where you will construct a shared map of the school with this data.
