Can anyone point me at books/on-line resources that have a similar format to 'A Street Through Time' by Steve Noon - with images of a settlement, street/village/town changing through time - thanks!

Becoming a 'part-time carnivore' makes sense but we need to consider the conservation value of maintaining domestic (inc. rare) breeds on managed grasslands, etc. https://t.co/ZcBoGMlxlV

@DecoloniseGeog @shiv_teaching @Nonalemkin @danwhittall Good reminder of need to consider words carefully - my word of concern is 'community' often used to 'lump' people together for social and political reasons.

@MissBristowGeog @ManorCharney @Attention2place These look great - designed to get children thinking in terms of natural cycles I presume?

@geoviews @bcsmaps @bodleianlibs Excellent Brit Cartographic Soc 'tea-time talk' on this map last evening! I would advise everyone to check out the blog about the map!

@Primageographer And get them to draw a world map too!

Interesting to read that cartography was included in consultation regarding a potential GCSE in
Natural History (OCR) - maps so important for teaching across STEM and the humanities. The GCSE - https://t.co/K98UWC7wjH - where has this got to?

@SusanJPike @The_GA Amazing conference - I came to gauge what schools might want from the mapping industry and British Cartographic Society (BCS) - it was such a fruitful exercise. Please feel free to contact me as the Chair of the BCS Education Committee at [email protected]

@WAlvingtonLAP @SusanJPike @EYPPC_GA So good to see children are still making physical models of the landscape! Like drawing, it encourages close examination and engagement! Brilliant!!!

Is there a silver lining? Many more families seemed to be walking their local countryside close to towns and cities during the first lockdown - this report does not bode well! https://t.co/4vylAVNWlw
