Educational worksheet teaching map skills using a grid to locate park items.

Let’s solve this “Map Skills: Location on a Grid” worksheet step by step.

---

🗺️ Understanding the Grid

The grid has:
- Columns labeled A to E (horizontal)
- Rows labeled 1 to 5 (vertical)

Each cell is identified by column letter + row number, like A3 or D2.

---

🔑 Using the Key

Match each symbol to its name:

- Tree → 🌳
- Ice cream → 🍦 (with umbrella)
- Park bench → 🪑
- Play area → 🛝 (slide/swing)
- Trash can → 🗑️
- Fountain → 🌊 (water feature)
- Bridge → 🌉

---

## ✔ PART 1: Name the location of each item on the map

We’ll scan the grid and find where each item appears.

---

🍦 Ice cream:

Look for the ice cream cone with an umbrella.
→ Found at A2

✔ Ice cream: A2

---

🗑️ Trash can:

Look for the trash can icon.
→ Found at D1

✔ Trash can: D1

---

🪑 Park bench:

Look for the bench.
→ Found at C1

✔ Park bench: C1

---

🌊 Fountain:

Look for the fountain.
→ Found at C3

✔ Fountain: C3

---

🌳 Tree:

Look for the tree icons.
→ Found at:
- A5
- A3
- E4

✔ Tree: A5, A3, E4

*(Note: The example shows “play area: B4, E2” — so multiple locations are acceptable if there are multiple items.)*

---

## 🖍️ PART 2: Add new items to the map (Draw & Label)

You can place these anywhere on the grid — just pick empty cells and write their coordinates.

Example placements (you can choose others):

- Restroom: Let’s put it at B1 (empty cell)
- Bike trail: Put it at E3 (empty cell)
- Cotton candy: Put it at D4 (empty cell)
- Balloons: Put it at B5 (empty cell)

✔ Restroom: B1
✔ Bike trail: E3
✔ Cotton candy: D4
✔ Balloons: B5

*(Remember: You must draw the picture in that cell too — since this is text, I’m describing where to draw them.)*
