Constructing a map

A small group worked in the block area to build a house car that had different rooms for a mom, dad, brother, and a baby. "Where does the car take you?"  - Teacher asked 

                          "To Chicago." - children responded

                 "Chicago is right on my map. I have a computer map." 

                     The children requested paper to draw their map. 

   

      The children discussed blue and yellow lines they can see on a map. 

                           "I need black for the streets." - MG

                       "There are going to be some turns." -CG

                   Tell me about the lines. -Teacher

      "Go straight, then left, then there is a loopty loop, and then at the swimming pool." -CG

          "It takes you to restaurants, houses, or the bakery." -CG 

                                     Directions to get to the bakery: 

"Straight, turn up, double, loopty loop, and then straight to get to the bakery shop." -MG 

                                        Below are the loopty loops:
