Mapping the Playground

Students worked in groups creating a map of the playground.  By looking out of the window, students were able to gain a bird's eye view of the playground in order to make a map.  Groups learned about drawing things according to scale and all of their maps had a compass rose and map key.

A bird's eye view.

Don't forget a map key!

Scale is important.  The court is smaller than the field.
