Imagine you're trying to find your way through a maze, some maps are like a bird's-eye view, showing everything at once. Others are like a step-by-step guide, helping you move from one place to another. Maps help us understand the world in different ways.
Why Different Maps?
Some maps show where cities and roads are, like a road map. Others show mountains and rivers, like a physical map. Still others show directions or distances, helping you know how far you need to walk or drive.
Examples
- A road map helps you find the fastest way to school.
- A physical map shows where the highest mountain is in your town.
