Topographic Map Creations

In social studies our second graders have been learning about maps. One of the maps we've started learning about is topographic maps. In order to better understand these types of map, we did an activity using play dough so that students could experiment with these maps. Students were given the task of creating their own topographic map which would show four different elevations. Once students finished this map, if they had time, they could also create their own topographic maps. Students loved working in groups and using the play dough to create their own maps!
