What is the land like around your school? You are going to make a map.

Directions:

1. In your ISN, find your next blank page. Put this title 1-3 Make a Map at the top. You do not need margins.

2. Draw a small square (about two inches per side) in the center of your page. This will represent our school (Luiseno).

3. Write Luiseno next to the square to label it.

4. Choose a word to describe the land near the school, such as flat, hilly, or rolling, and write it next to the square that is Luiseno.

5. Use a compass if you have a real one or use the compass app on a phone. Have it point north. North is the top of your paper.

6. Pick a something that is north of Luiseno. Draw and label it on your map. This could be a park, pool, the mountain, a house, etc.

7. Describe each area you draw with a word, such as flat, hilly, rolling.

8. Repeat Step 6 for areas within a few miles east, south and west of the first square you made for our school. You should include your house on the map. Remember, north is the top of your paper. South would be toward the bottom. West would be to the left of Luiseno on your map and east to the right.

9. Color each area you put on your map.

10. Make a key

Good luck! We will check out each other's maps on Friday.
