Questions about Mapping Our Street
What does the Mapping Our Street worksheet cover?
It practises what belongs on a map — 8 questions for Kindergarten to Grade 2, all on Common Core D2.Geo.1.K-2: Draw a map or chart of a place you know. The instruction to pupils is “Circle the best answer”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
Which Common Core standard does Mapping Our Street practise?
D2.Geo.1.K-2 — D2.Geo.1.K-2, in the Geography domain for Kindergarten to Grade 2. The published standard reads: “Construct maps, graphs, and other representations of familiar places.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
What age or grade is this worksheet for?
Mapping Our Street is written for Kindergarten to Grade 2, typically ages 7-8. It is one of the sheets on D2.Geo.1.K-2, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Does Mapping Our Street come with an answer key?
Yes. All 8 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
How many different versions of Mapping Our Street can I print?
25 — one per pupil, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
Is Mapping Our Street free to print and photocopy?
Yes. Mapping Our Street, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
