One way to plan your setting is to draw a map. A map shows the shape of your land if viewed from the sky and uses symbols to show where the important things are.
Here's one I knocked up quickly called Boglewax Island

I've used villages, churches, railways etc. You can put whatever you like an a map, as long as you create a key with all the symbols in it.
If you create a map at school, best check whether or not your teacher has any special symbols that he or she wants you to use. If not, you can make up your own symbols.
If you're interested in how maps work, here is a picture of a real place (Falmouth) taken from the sky, and a map (by Google) of the same place.
