Let's solve each question step by step using the map and the
Map Key provided.
---
Step 1: Understand the Map
- The map shows a grid of streets:
-
Main Street (top horizontal)
-
Water Street (bottom horizontal)
-
Happy Street (left vertical)
-
Green Street (right vertical)
- The
Map Key tells us what each symbol means:
- 🚌 = bus stop
- ⛽ = gas station
- 🍽️ = restaurant
- 📚 = library
- 🏬 = church
- 📬 = post office
- 🏡 = Adam’s house
---
Question 1: What street is the 🍽️ on?
- Look for the
restaurant symbol (fork and knife).
- It is located in the
center block, between Main Street and Water Street, and between Happy Street and Green Street.
- Since it's
between Main and Water Streets, it's on
Water Street (the lower one), but actually, it's centered — so it's
on Water Street.
✔ Answer: Water Street
---
Question 2: There is a 🚌 on Main Street and ________
- Find the
bus stop symbol (school bus).
- There are two bus stops:
- One on
Main Street, at the intersection with
Green Street
- One on
Water Street, at the intersection with
Green Street
So, the bus stop on
Main Street is at the corner of
Green Street.
✔ Answer: Green Street
---
Question 3: To get to the 📬 Adam needs to go ________ on Happy Street.
- First, find
Adam’s house (🏠) — it's in the
top-left block, on
Main Street, at the corner of
Happy Street.
- Now, find the
post office (📬). It’s in the
bottom-left block, on
Water Street, at the corner of
Happy Street.
So, Adam is at the
north end of Happy Street (top), and the post office is at the
south end of Happy Street (bottom).
To get from his house to the post office, he must travel
south on Happy Street.
✔ Answer: south

Question 4: What is on the corner of Green Street and Water Street?
- Look at the
intersection of
Green Street and
Water Street (bottom-right corner).
- At that corner, there is a
gas station (⛽).
Now, choose between the two options:
- Church (🕌)
- Gas station (⛽)
✔ Correct answer: Circle the
gas station (⛽)
