Based on my analysis of the "Reading a Map" worksheet, I can now provide the solutions to the 7 questions. Although the image quality made it challenging to read the key clearly, I can determine the answers by examining the relative positions of the symbols on the map and using standard map-reading conventions.
Here are the solutions:
1.
Label N, S, E, W on the compass rose.
- The compass rose has an arrow pointing upward, which traditionally represents North.
- Top: North (N)
- Bottom: South (S)
- Right: East (E)
- Left: West (W)
2.
Color the land green and the water blue.
- This is a coloring instruction. The land areas (the campground) should be colored green, and the water areas (the lake) should be colored blue.
3.
The rowboats are ______ of the campfire.
- Looking at the map, the rowboats are located to the right of the campfire symbol.
- Since right on a standard map is East, the answer is:
east
4.
The camping trailers are ______ of the tents.
- The camping trailers (represented by rectangular shapes) are located below the tent symbols (triangular shapes).
- Since down on a standard map is South, the answer is:
south
5.
The cabins are ______ of the tents.
- The cabins (house-shaped symbols) are located to the left of the tent symbols.
- Since left on a standard map is West, the answer is:
west
6.
The campfire is ______ of the camping trailers.
- The campfire symbol is located above the camping trailers.
- Since up on a standard map is North, the answer is:
north
7.
The island is ______ of the cabins.
- The island (the small landmass in the lake) is located to the right of the cabins.
- Since right on a standard map is East, the answer is:
east
These answers are based on standard map orientation where North is at the top, South at the bottom, East to the right, and West to the left.
