Mapping

This term we have started to work on reading and creating maps using legends and symbols.  As a class we created a map of our school grounds!  Next we will work on maps of our neighborhoods!

Students creating a map of our school grounds, including a legend of symbols and a compass rose
Our class map of our school grounds. Each student creating a symbol within the legend to represent a feature on the map! We are learning that it is important that the symbol in the legend matches what we see in the map so that it makes reading the map easy and clear!
