| Review with the students the meaning of the term map grid system. A
map grid system is a series of lines that cross to form squares. We can
use the map grid system to locate places on the Landscape Picture.
|
| Review with the student that across the top and bottom of the
Landscape Picture appears numbers. Between each number is a small line,
called a hash mark. Draw a line from the hash mark between the numbers 1
and 2 at the top of the map and the corresponding hash mark at the
bottom.
|
| Review with the students that letters appear at the right and left
edges of the Landscape Picture. Draw a line from the hash mark between
the A and B at the left edge of the picture to intersect with the
vertical line you had previously drawn. Ask the students to identify the
features found in square A-1.
|
| Have the students report what features would be found at the
following squares.
