Explain the levels of acquisition of skills at different age levels; use map-making as an example in the toddler-preschool, kindergarten-first grade, second-fourth grade age groups
What will be an ideal response?
At beginning stages, map making may include a child using any writing utensil and a large piece of paper to record lines and spaces or roads and buildings. As children develop the skills of a kindergartner or first grader, they will begin to add details of relative distance, turns to represent directionality, and basic signage. Older children are likely to include street names, key landmarks, topographical features, bodies of water, a compass rose, and a beginning understanding of drawing to scale. Complexities develop as experiences and opportunities to interact with authentic materials present themselves in activities children find meaningful.
