My students always loved mapping lessons, especially when we used found objects on the beach to be markers, seaweed for the ocean etc. Older kids always loved the pirate maps we made and using their mapping skills to add some "coolness".

I did the same with my own son, but I smiled because our grandson is staying with us at the moment, and I’ve been showing him how to iron his shirts and do a little basic cooking. He is signing up to the army soon, and I’m sure they will teach him all these things, but I wanted him to be one step ahead of the game!<br />I really like the ideas behind ‘Mapping my day’ and wish it had been available when I was growing up, those kinds of skills are always useful. <br />Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05962552429792516213noreply@blogger.com
