Assess students' ability to read a simple neighborhood map (home, school, park, store, streets) by interpreting symbols/legend, planning and tracing routes, using directional language (left, right, straight, near, far), sequencing steps, and choosing the shortest or safest path; tasks include selecting a route from home to school, identifying the nearest park or store, giving turn‑by‑turn directions, and explaining route choices in age‑appropriate ways (drawing, labeling, or oral description).
