Assess students' ability to plan the safest and most efficient walking route between two local landmarks using a map's scale to measure distance, the compass rose to determine direction, and the legend to interpret symbols (e.g., sidewalks, crosswalks, parks, roads). Students will calculate actual distances from map measurements, identify cardinal directions for the route, choose the best path considering distance and safety, and write a brief justification for their choice. Suitable for Grade 3–5, focusing on applied map-reading and spatial reasoning skills.
