Know it

To map our neighbourhood, we can walk around and note important places, like our home, school, park, and shops, then draw them on paper.

See the pattern

We use simple symbols to represent places - like a small house for homes, a tree for parks - and include a map key to explain what each symbol means.

Including directions (North, South, East, West) helps show the relationship between different places on our map.
