Worksheet Description

The “Giving Directions” worksheet showcases a colorful, illustrated street map with two roads: City Center Street and Wilmington Street, adorned with various shops, services, and a park, each labeled with street numbers. The purpose of the worksheet is to utilize the provided map to answer questions posed by the teacher, which would typically involve navigating from one location to another on the map. The detailed illustrations and clear numbering system on the buildings aid students in visualizing the layout and distances between locations.
