Today in class we were beginning the early stages of becoming cartographers who need to create maps of our school. First we began by discussing what the word "model" meant and all of the different examples of models that we could think of. We discussed how a map is an example of a model representing an area on the Earth. We created a list of things that should be included on a map of our school.

Tomorrow we will continue our mapmaking process by creating our actual map and designing it.

See ya then,
Mrs. E
