Welcome First
Graders!
| You have
been working on writing your addresses, and you're doing a great job!
Now, the
fire department needs your help. |

|
| They are trying to make really great
maps so
that they could easily get to your house if you ever have a fire. Can
you
help? |

|
Grab your
worksheet that we were working on last time. Make sure your address is
written
on it!
You will be drawing directions from
the fire department to your house!
Your
instructions are as follows:
(1) Look at the text box near the top of the page,
where you might type something in. Just below, there are the words "Get
Directions." Click on the words.
(2) Use the
first page of your worksheet to
find the address of the fire department.
(3)Type it
into the first box you see on the left. 43
Bombardier Rd, Milton, Vermont
(4)
Then type
your own address into the second box on the right.
(5) Click on
the grey button "Get Directions."
(6) Label one
sticky note "My House." Put this on your worksheet.
(7) Label one
sticky note "Fire Station." Put this
on your worksheet.
(8) Draw the
route that the map shows you from the
fire station to your house! It is blue.
