    Six Figure Grid

    References?
    Aim: To learn how to use more
    accurate grid references.

     Share learning with your peers.


    Why do we need more
    accuracy?
    Lets zoom in on one grid square…….
    Lets try that without the
    lines….
    Six figure grid references
    allow us to narrow down an
    area of 1 square kilometre to
    an area of 100 metres
    squared. This means we
    can be much more accurate.

    To use six figures we must


    divide the distance
    between two grid lines into
    ten equal sections.

     Work through the sheet at your


    own speed.
     If you complete the A-Z then try
    decoding the message on the
    bottom of the sheet.
     Write your own coded message to
    one of your friends.
