Imagine you are a bird flying high in the sky! When you look down at your school, you can see the playground, the big green trees, and the roof of your classroom. A map is a special drawing that shows what a bird sees from way up high. It helps us see where everything is, from the swings to the front door!
Your neighborhood is full of fun places to visit, like your friend’s house, a park, or even a library. We use little pictures called symbols to show these places on a map. A map key is like a secret code that tells you what each picture means. With a map in your hand, you can be a brave explorer and find your way to all your favorite spots!
