What3words

This worksheet can be done at home and uses the website 'what2words'. The young people have to solve the clues and then find the locations around the UK. We also ran a similar evening face-to-face with explorers. The clues were for spaces in the park and the explorers had to find a stone hidden in that area (we did it in the dark and the stones were small - wouldn't suggest this in the future!) They used the app and managed to find about 14 clues in total.  Answers are: Bulb.Handbook.Skate - Duncansby Head Lighthouse at John O' Groats Cove.Seats.Shirt - Nelson's Column at Trafalgar Square Pirates.Bandage.Diverting - Stonehenge in Wiltshire Alone.Fired.Wasp - Avalanche Rollercoaster at Blackpool Pleasure Beach Sandpaper.Evolution.Shampoo - Summit Station on Mount Snowdown
