Mapping Your Way
NCERT Math Magic for Class 5, Chapter 8, Mapping Your Way, begins with children drawing the route from home to school. It reads classroom and village maps with symbols for roads, rivers, schools, and trees, uses the four directions with the sun and compass, and converts map centimetres into real distances through scale. Grid boxes locate houses and landmarks like rows and columns. Children plan short routes, compare long and short paths, and give clear directions a stranger could follow.
