Where is My Campus?

Starter
Teacher Note
On the board draw a rough map of the neighborhood, just a few streets and the
campus will do. Ask “Where is the campus?” Have a student come to the board and
point it out. Then ask where a few other landmarks are and have students draw and
label them on your map

building. Walk down the street 'till you come an intersection, cross the
intersection. Keep straight for about 200 meters, then turn right. You'll come to
