This medium worksheet pairs nine fill-in-the-blank sentences with a four-row matching grid so kindergartners can move from words to pictures with confidence. Children write that a compass shows directions, a small square can mean a house, a dotted line can show a trail, and a blue shape can mean a lake. Then they match a star to a city, a tree to a park, a blue line to a river, and a tent to a campsite.
The blend of writing and matching helps young learners notice how shapes, colors, and pictures all carry meaning together on a map.
