Junior High students went old school today and spent the hour studying a Missouri map...a real, paper, highway, map! Map reading helps students visualize and interpret data, which develops strong spatial reasoning skills; a good mental exercise for these emerging scholars.
Funnies overheard:
"Imagine trying to drive with this thing!"
"How did you know if you were lost?"
"Didn't this block your view?"
Hardest part of the day? Folding the map back up! 🗺️
