Cronulla is a beachside suburb in southern Sydney, it is located 34.0574° S, 151.1522° E which is 26 kilometres south of the Sydney CBD (see figure 2). It is governed by the Sutherland Shire Council. Cronulla’s coastal environment is on the Kurnell Peninsula, which is made up of a tombolo. A tombolo is a sand spit connecting a rocky outcrop or island to the mainland.

The book that I have chosen for this project is called Mapping Penny’s World by Loreen Leedy. This book teaches students the concepts of making and understanding maps. This book starts out with a girl named Lisa talking about how her class is learning how to use maps. The story then proceeds to Lisa making many different kinds of maps. Throughout the book, she creates maps of places like her bedroom, her dog’s treasure map, and her dog’s favorite places. The book talks about important things that need to be added to a map, which I find extremely helpful. This is one reason I think this book is such a great resource to use for social studies. Another reason I think it is a good resource is because the maps are very detailed, which helps students

I decided to sketch a map of Langley High School, which is the high school I attended from 2011-2015 in McLean, Virginia. While I have lived on the Colgate campus for almost two years, I find that I am not as familiar with Colgate’s campus due to its large scale compared to my high school campus. I attended Langley for four years, and I often spent a majority of my days at school, both during school hours and after for sport’s practices and games. As a result, I became very familiar with the layout of the campus, the function of different areas, and the overall dynamic of the school, both socially and culturally. Now that I am a Langley alumni, I went back to visit during Thanksgiving break 2015 and 2016, and was able to observe the school from an outside perspective. Through my observations, I became aware of different aspects of Langley that I had not noticed as a student. For example, the different in the tense and stressful dynamic of the second floor, and the more relaxed feeling of the bottom floor was something I did not notice until I walked through the halls after graduating. Additionally, the clear hierarchy and social divisions that exist as a result of grade differences was more prominent as a non-student. In my sketch of Langley, I represented more socially important spaces by drawing them to a larger scale, and less important spaces to a smaller scale. I also indicated the changing role of a space throughout the school day by using different

Luis Perez and his family immigrated to the United States from Argentina. In Argentina they were very successful, but thought that America could open up more possibilities for the family. The thought of better education for his children and better chances for his business of growing grapes to sell to vineyards is the main reason why Luis and his family immigrated to America.

The process of creating a district map in Texas sounds easier than it is done. The whole point of congressional district maps is to divide voters into their own election districts. The boundary that divides these two is set by the state legislature which in this case would be Texas legislature. Sounds simple enough but there is also the part where the law requires that there be the same number of population under each state district in order to keep the balance of voting to an equal and the way that is determined is by the census that goes around counting up people in different neighborhoods in that state and extra information is also gathered along such as age, number of people in the house hold, ethnicity, etc. This format could and does
