3D Community Map Completed!

We have finally completed out community map! We finished painting the last few buildings, drew in street lines, and parking spaces. We added the street signs that were once in the classroom and voila! The map is hanging awesomely in our hallway! It's really great because the guidance classroom is right down the hall and all the classes that walk by stare at our map on the way there. We have students and teachers who stop and point. They talk about how great our map is! The sixth graders next door really want to have a map like ours and their teacher is thinking about doing a 3D map of the China wall in April during cultural diversity month. We even have a second grade class who wants to schedule a time to come up and get a personal tour of the map from our class. It definitely is an awesome hallway display and I am so excited for my hard working third graders who spent so much time learning about what it means to be a part of a community and the difference between rural, urban, and suburban community set ups.
