The third graders are having a blast with their first social studies unit of the school year... Map Skills! In this unit, we will work on the following learning targets:
* Students will understand a variety of maps and use cardinal directions, map grids and longitude/latitude.
*Students will know the approximate location of major continents and bodies of water (oceans).
*Students will know the location of countries (USA, Canada and Mexico) and important cities (Washington, D.C., New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Green Bay, Milwaukee and Madison).
The kiddos got to explore an atlas with a partner last week. They are already picking up on so many skills! :)
