Map Skills for Students

This collection features map activities designed to strengthen spatial thinking skills for students. Spatial thinking allows students to comprehend and analyze phenomena related to the places and spaces around them, and is one of the most important skills students can develop as they learn geography, and various science disciplines. Spatial thinking deepens our understanding of history and is linked to success in math and science. It enhances our language skills as we collaborate and communicate about spatial relationships. Students who develop robust spatial thinking skills will be at an advantage in an increasingly global and technological society.
