Maths - Live dep info - Data Handling and time

Once more another initial idea that is worth posting for anyone's thoughts.

Blueghost.co.uk has supplied a great resource which is in the Dynamic Layers forum. It provides live traffic and travel information for the UK.

This can be used in maths when exploring time and travel times. This work is probably for Year 5 or 6. (times are in 24 hr clock)

> Ensure the resource is checked in My Places list.
> Navigate to your school's region.
> Explore what train stations there are in the surrounding area.
> Decide upon a journey and click on the relevant station.
> Select 'Click here to see train running times' in the placemark.
> The web page should open up - scroll down to the current information.
> Explore departure times and plan a journey.

This could be completed as a whole class using an interactive whiteboard - a group in the independent time could then plan a similar journey using the interactive whiteboard - with or without support.

Key Objective Year 5 NNS:
Use all four operations to solve simple word problems involving numbers and quantities, including time, explaining methods and reasoning.

Key Objectives Year 6 NNS:
Identify and use the appropriate operations (including combinations of operations) to solve word problems involving numbers and quantities, and explain methods and reasoning.

Solve a problem by extracting and interpreting information presented in tables, graphs and charts.
