Maps

Hi guys today I will be telling you about maps, here is some information about the some of the maps I'm learning about.



Climate Map:

These maps tell you about the weather in different places by using a colour key.


 






Physical Map:


These maps show features like rivers, lakes, woods and forests. 



Topographic Map:


These maps have contour lines to show elevation.






Most maps will have a compass rose on them, they show the direction of north.

My mum and I are making a map of our local area.

I'll be posting our map on this blog soon.
