📌 Chapter Summary
This lesson introduces foundational concepts of spatial awareness, directions (North, South, East, West, Left, Right), map reading, and standard cartographic symbols used to represent buildings, trees, hospitals, and roads.
Answer: A map is a drawing of an area or locality seen from above. We use small, simple symbols on maps because drawing full realistic pictures of buildings, hospitals, and trees takes too much space and makes reading difficult.
Answer: The four main directions are North, South, East, and West. If you stand facing the morning rising sun with your arms outstretched, you are facing East, your back is toward West, your left hand points to North, and your right hand points to South.
Answer: A Red Cross sign (+) is universally used to identify a hospital or medical aid center.
Answer: A landmark is a well-known, prominent building or structure (such as a park, school, water tank, or post office) that helps people navigate easily toward an unknown location.
