On the way up to our spot we practiced orienting our map, making sure the next landmark on our map was lined up with where it actually was on our pathway. Then we broke into groups to play a fun map game which included hiding something for a friend to find. Over the past few weeks we have had little avatars which have helped us in our map work, this class it was finally warm enough to decorate the avatars! The squirrels spent a lot of time making their avatar's unique through markers, thread, beads and felt. During free time some of the Squirrels explored the other maps we brought while others explored the hill side finding secret doors and houses. Much more map adventures to come!
