Map Skills

This school year you will learn how to determine where places and objects are on a map.

"...symbols and cardinal directions are used to tell where places and things are located on a map... "

You can find information about the symbols on a map by looking at its key. The cardinal directions - North, South, East, and West - can be found on a design on a map called a Compass Rose.
