Map Scale
A map scale shows the distance between two places that are too big to put on paper so people use a scale
e.g. 1kilometre in real life might be 5 cm on paper.

Measuring distance
Measuring distance has 50% got to do with a scale you need a scale to measure distance . When you measure distance put it between the two dots and mark it you use a strip of paper ,string or a ruler and put it on a scale and it will tell you the real life distance. You must also be accurate .

Grid Refrences
A grid reference is made of lines of longtitude and latitude which is which?
In harry potter Neville longbottom was tall so longtitude is a line that goes from north to south.
Lines of latutude lat=flat rhymesSo the line of latitude goes east to West.
LONGTITUDE

Height (contour lines)
On a map you can’t display the height .It will be impossible . Geographers use line called contour lines to tell the height. This image clearly shows how it works
When lines are close together that means it will be very steepwhen they are more spread that means more space.

Symbols
Symbols are small images that take over the original image on a map .Geographers use it because it would be easier to put in on a map.
Here is a legend.
