Describing a neighbourhood by identifying its landmarks and to create visual representations of a community. This helps with the understanding of citizenship as children learn about important landmarks and places in their community.
Talk about what a map is. How is it used? What information does it contain? If you have one, show it to the child and discuss it.
Ask your child what characteristics a map has.
Have your child draw a map of their neighbourhood. Let the child include familiar and personal landmarks on the map, such as stores, playgrounds, a friend’s or neighbour’s house, the place of prayer, fire station, school, etc.
Check the map’s accuracy. Let the child take a walk around the neighbourhood to check that the information on the map is accurate and make corrections as needed.
