Make a map of a familiar place
Choose a classroom, a park, or a room. Sketch its shape and add five features that help someone find their way.
- Give the map a title.
- Choose symbols for the features.
- Add a key explaining each symbol.
- Ask someone to follow a route using your map.
- Revise anything they found confusing.
Think like a geographer
What did you include? What did you leave out? How would your map change if it were made for a visitor, a gardener, or someone using a wheelchair?
