Tools for mapping...

There are lots of ideas for 'mapping tools’; here are a few more fairly general ones. How you use them is up to you! What is really important is to RECORD: you need to actually map something (something real, a thing or activity, a place or condition), and show this is a JOURNEY of some kind that tells us about the Necklace Park. So in addition to the tools of your choice, you also need to have a Necklace Park map to begin with (you can print them off this site) which you can refer to and on which marks should be made. Some maps may call for quite specific tools (like fishing equipment) but you’ll know better than us how and what to use in that case…
