Toddler:
Use descriptive directional words when moving through a space with your child such as “going UP the stairs,” “UNDER a bridge,” or “turning LEFT.”
Preschool:
Help your child make a map of a play space you’ve visited many times, such as a park. This helps them understand maps as representations of actual places.
K-3rd Grade
Using blocks or boxes, encourage your child to build their neighborhood. Include important buildings, landmarks, and familiar places.
4th-6th Grade
Older Elementary: Next time you go for a walk, make a route on a paper map or in a mapping app and let your child navigate.
7th-8th Grade
Find your birthday coordinates. Use the month for latitude and day for longitude. For example, if your birthday is November 26, your coordinates could be 11°N, 26°E. Plot your birthday coordinates on a printed map or look them up in Google Maps. Where are the coordinates located?
9th-12th Grade
Broaden your worldview by watching a documentary that takes you to a different country or continent. It could be about animals, food, dance-just as long as it expands your horizons!
