Help orient students to their surroundings with this easy mapping worksheet! This worksheet provides a flexible starting point for students to create their own map of either their playground or their classroom. There are 6 base maps provided (including with a given key/legend, with an open key/legend and with no key/legend). This worksheet is perfect for a start of the year activity or as part of a social studies/geography unit.

Students of all ages will be able to connect and reflect about their time in nature with these sensory based nature journalling pages. These pages encourage students to use their eyes, ears, noses and hands to paint a more full picture of their surroundings. Different page formats are included to differentiate for students through the use of drawings, simple sentences or more detailed journalling. Pages are flexible and can be used with a specific prompt or used generally.
