Read a map key

Use a supplied key to interpret a map symbol.

1. A symbol's meaning comes from that map's key, not a guess about its shape.
2. Work through the example. Explain how its evidence supports the answer.
3. Try a new question; use the explanation to check your thinking.

Try it together

Make one new example with a partner. Identify the evidence for your answer before checking it together.
