SOCIAL STUDIES

We have been studying all of the different parts of a map. Using grid paper, create your own map of a city or town (see the sample map below). Your teacher can give you a piece of grid paper if you need it for this project. Your map must include all the componets of a map including:

Title
Compass rose
At least 4 streets with names
Map key/legend that includes at least 8 symbols
A grid
Scale
Written directions where you choose a location on your map and give directions to another place on your map (you can write this on the back of your map)

Example written directions: To get from the Candy Shop to the Football Stadium, head north on Park Street. When you get to Longhorn Avenue, head east about 2 miles. The stadium will be on the right side on the corner of Longhorn Avenue and University Drive.
