Map Buddies

Today we met with our fourth grade buddies to create a map of Maine.  We discussed the borders of Maine, places of interest, and major roads.  Then the kids were given a blank map of Maine and were cut loose to create their own Maine maps.  The partners used paper maps and Google Earth to discover Moosehead Lake, Mount Katahdin, and I95.  Studnets used the paper maps to show their partners how their parents traveled to work.  One group loved finding their houses using Google Earth.
