This guide for elementary grade teachers is intended to assist in: 1) planning for sequential development of basic skills and understandings in the use of maps and globes; 2) providing concrete experiences for children in primary grades which increase understanding and develop skill in the use of maps and globes; 3) providing extended experiences and systematic study for elementary grade children to enlarge and deepen understandings of maps and globes; 4) selecting appropriate maps and globes for each grade level; and, 5) using suggested techniques for map making. For each grade, specific aims in skills and understandings are accompanied by suggested learning experiences. Books and films for children on the use of maps and globes are listed, along with references for the teacher on geography and social studies in the elementary grades. (JLB)
