Fun with Topographic Maps!

We will use USGS maps and locally produced CAGIS maps to learn about contour lines, hills, valleys, water movement. etc. Students will learn what contour lines are, how to read a topographic map and how maps are developed. Working in teams, the girls will make their own topographical maps from models brought into the classroom.
