This medium worksheet shows a school map with classrooms, the library, the gym, the cafeteria, and the playground, each marked by a symbol. First graders use the legend to label five blank boxes on the map with the correct room name. They also draw a path from the front door to the library, practicing how legends guide real navigation around a familiar place like their own school.
