What children learn in Level 46
- A real park is very big. A map of the park is small enough to hold in your hands!
- Maps show big places small, so they fit on paper. A map can show a whole town, or even the whole world.
- A toy car is a small model of a real car. A globe is a small model of Earth.
- The real Earth is much, much bigger than a globe!
- Try it with a grown-up! Find a toy that is a small model of something big.
