Bird’s Eye View – 3 Lessons with 4-part cards
• Level 1 – small scale manipulative objects… Can you hold a pencil so it looks like a pink circle?
• Level 2 – medium scale fixed objects… What would a swingset look like viewed from above?
• Level 3 – large scale fixed objects… What would a parking lot look like viewed from the side?
These experiences prepare children for map reading, but will also influence children’s art!
