We have been tracing the voyage Charles Darwin made on the HMS Beagle in 1832. We have explored the Galapagos, Tierra del Fuego and other interesting places on his 5 year expedition which helped formulate his theory of evolution. Using our KNOWLEDGE of the 'google earth tools', we made our own 'google earth projects' showcasing our SKILLS. KEY VOCAB USED: longitude, latitude, equator, time zones, plotting, sharing, content. One Y6 member said, "It's great to see the remarkable places he visited!" ### Google Earth [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/google-earth/IMG_20220204_143237.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/google-earth/IMG_20220204_143237.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/google-earth/IMG_20220204_143302.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/google-earth/IMG_20220204_143302.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/google-earth/IMG_20220204_143457.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/google-earth/IMG_20220204_143457.jpg) [Year 6](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/year-6) [Geography](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/geography) [History](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/history) [Computing](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/computing) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/IMG_8947.JPG)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2022-02-03-12-12-24-year-2-re-judaism) Previous ### [Year 2 RE - Judaism](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2022-02-03-12-12-24-year-2-re-judaism) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/IMG_20220210_133221.jpg)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2022-02-10-16-45-00-the-great-british-bake-off-part-1) Next ### [The Great British Bake Off Part 1 ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2022-02-10-16-45-00-the-great-british-bake-off-part-1) ### School Life - [Brookside Blog ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog) - [News](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/news) - [Events](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/events) - [Photograph Galleries ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/photo-galleries) - [School Council](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/school-council) - [After-School Clubs ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/after-school-clubs) - [KIDZ Club](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/kidz-club) - [Calendar](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/calendar) - [Newsletters](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/information-for-parents/newsletters-2026-2027) - [Mental Health ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/mental-health) ##### Location Rostherne Avenue Great Sutton Cheshire CH66 2EE ##### Contact Us 0151 558 1123 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/brooksideprimary/) © Copyright 2014–2026 Brookside Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
