Happy Mappin!

In November Maya tracked her big brother, Daniel, as he crossed the country. Dan just finished his career in the US Marines Corps. He had been stationed in California and was traveling back to see the ol rents in NY.

So- for school, Maya called Daniel each evening on his cell. She asked which state he was in at that moment. She listed the state name on a chart. Along with that she moved a little paper truck (Dan) across the US map. The truck left a Sharpie line everywhere it went. She used a map puzzle and sticky tack to show all the states he passed through. She learned many state names and locations. This was a great project for her!
