One of the Social Studies expectations for first graders in DC is to interpret the use of map elements to organize information about places and environment. Last year, the kiddos explored various map tools, including globes and atlases, and we had a discussion about their similarities and differences (see post). This year, I did the same activity but created a worksheet to let the kiddos make their own observations.
I set out each of the tools on a table around the room and divided the kiddos into groups. They travelled around the room with their graphic organizers filling in each column as they explored each tool. They did such a great job!
