Which mental mapping task should 12th grade students be working on?
  1. Identifying how information about current events alters their mental maps.
  2. Identifying the formal boundaries of U.S. land acquisitions that occurred after the Revolutionary War, from memory.
  3. Identifying patterns of coastal population density, from memory.
  4. Identifying the settings from favorite books or movies on a map.
Explanation
Answer: A -Students in the 12th grade should be working on higher order mental mapping skills, such as being able to identify how current events alter their mental maps (what the map looked like before and after). As students mature, they should be continually refining their mental maps to accommodate new information. Identifying settings from books and movies is a 4th grade objective; identifying boundaries of U.S. acquisitions and patterns of coastal population density are 8th grade learning objectives.
