Nelson Atlas

The "Nelson Atlas" is a resource for the primary classroom. It provides a wide range of maps that are relevant not only to geography, but to a variety of other curriculum areas also. The maps are large and uncluttered, with clear labels, allowing children to identify information more easily. Many features are shown graphically, adding interest to the maps and making them easier to understand. The "Nelson Atlas" includes: a range of maps for the British Isles, Europe and the world; maps for history; maps for religious education; satellite photographs; and aerial photographs. Additional features include: satellite photographs opposite physical maps to help children understand how maps represent the world; ancient maps opposite modern maps of the same area for comparing and contrasting and for understanding change; a colour-coded contents list and an index to help children develop their referencing skills.
