Eve.jpg

Eve knows a great deal about her local area and can talk about her pictorial map with confidence.  She identifies both her school and the DHS building near to the traffic lights.  She has also included Castlford Tigers Rugby League Ground on her map.   She can identify different kinds of buildings along Wheldon Road  and positions the buildings along the road side - not on the river side which is very accurate.  She places the location of the river a little too far away from the road - though she is clearly aware of the relationship between the river and Wheldon Road.  Eve, like Amy, knows there is a railway line that runs along the edge of the school field, but she does not know what happens after that point so the railway line stops abruptly.
