Now you need to plan out map(s). The goal is to use mapping skills to share your life's journey so far.
a compass
a key with the symbols you have used
routes that show where you where you have traveled
routes that show moves you've made
show location of places you've lived
pictures of 5 landmarks that are important to you
show location of places you've visited
show location places that are important to you
color coding (using same color for same categories)
a closing mechanism to keep the book shut when folded
Places you would like to visit
facts/stories about places on your map
All work must first be planned in pencil and then colored.
Spacing is important.
Your map must be able to be easily folded and unfolded even once all the info is there.
Please include lots of color and detail.
Here's a sample of my exploding book.
