Mapping My Trip to the 2002 Winter Olympics!

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Eighth graders map their route from their local community to Salt Lake City, Utah for the Winter Olympics. Using atlases, they gather topographical information and use the internet to research any landmarks they might pass on the way. They present their route to the class and put a copy of the map into their portfolio.
