Using scales on maps is a valuable skill for students to have as it helps them understand the relative distances between different locations. This kind of hands-on learning can make abstract concepts like distance and scale more tangible and easier to understand. By working with maps and scales, students can develop their spatial reasoning skills, which can have applications in a variety of fields, such as geography, cartography, and surveying. Well done to the grade 9 students at Redwater School for taking part in this educational exercise!
