This is a great interactive real world mapping application. Students use maps of the different parks from Walt Disney World to review cardinal directions, using a legend, and other basic map reading skills. It is a great review activity that can be used as a whole class lesson or as a center activity. I have also included an activity where students can create their own schedule of rides and places to eat.

This assessment integrates Social Studies (Underground Railroad) with ELA Poetry unit. This was written with 3rd grade CCSS in mind but could be used for 4th & 5th grades as well. Answer key is included and the assessment mixes short response, multiple choice, and labeling.

After my Disney World mapping activities became so popular I ventured on to other theme parks. Sea World was my next adventure.
