Maps can help us by letting us know where we are at like the compass. The symbols on the maps help us find us where we are going by showing us where we need to get and what we can find when we go places

# data[].attributes.body
Compasses are essential for a map because they tell you which direction to go. And you can use symbols to identify objects or figure out what something is. Here is an example if we didn't have compasses I would have no idea where to go and without symbols I would have to figure things out by myself if would be harder.

•Lines of Latitude run across Earths East direction.                        •Lines of longitude go across Earths North Direction.

Somethings I learn about maps is that there is a legend.A legend tells the symbol of what each picture is.A compose rose tells which way is east,west,south,and north.A map is important because it helps people which directions to go and helps people not get lost.

Something interesting i learned about maps today was the latitude because i had no idea of what that was before. Something interesting i learned from latitude was that they are imaginary!  Something else i thought was interesting was the scale. I never actually thought about the scale in a way and never thought it was really important, but it seems fascinating knowing you can measuring the distance of 2 states.  Maps are important because without maps we wouldn't be able to find our direction through the city or town. Just imagine if maps never existed, everybody would be lost. Before i moved to Mead Es i actually went on a map to see where it was located! Everybody needs a map!

Something that you use  in a map is a compass rose. You use it for tracking and seeing which side is is north or south.A map is important because it helps track places.

I learned that the locator map is a small portion of a state, contidents, and countries. And that the there are different kinds of maps like state maps or countries maps.

# data[].attributes.body
Ive learned that,like for ever inch its a 1,000 miles! and and a compass is somethinj that will track to north,south,east,west! and for most the map is huge.

I think symbols are very important.I think they are important because we need them to read what signs or colorful lines on a map mean.When there is a symbol reader on the side then it will be easier to read what something stands for on a map so we understand what the map is telling us to do.That is why I think symbols are very important.

# data[].attributes.body
something i learned is symbols and what they mean. symbols are shapes that describe what you would see on a map. like a mountain if you dont know what that is you can look on the left down and you will see the symbols. the mountain looks like and triangle but with no line.

Lines of latitude run in an east-west direction across Earth. Lines of longitude run in anorth-south direction. Although these are only imaginary lines, they appear on maps and globes like they actually existed.

# data[].attributes.body
something i learned today is that you can measure a distance on a map with a scale for example every inc is l,000 miles and i would probably use a ruler for evry inch

# data[].attributes.body
Hello

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned today is that you can use a scale to measure distance on a map. For example, a scale says for every inch there is 1,000 miles. I would use a ruler and for every inch I could mark 1,000 miles between two locations. I think maps are important because if I ever get lost I can find my way by knowing how to read it.

Drag and drop countries around the map to compare their relative size. Is Greenland really as big as all of Africa? You may be surprised at what you find! A great tool for educators.
