Lesson Plan Content
Description:
Students need a vocabulary that highlights spatial relationships, such as over/under, near/far, and in front of/behind. These words and spatial relationships are necessary concepts on which to build further geographic understanding. In this lesson students will develop the use of spatial vocabulary to describe and number locations on a map by finding a lost cat.
