Give your answer in kilometers. Let the students create their own maps. All schools have a variety of maps contained within textbooks, reference materials and teacher support materials. Have the students find a map which they think is appropriate for the tracking of their particular species. Make a transparency of the map and, using an overhead, project the map on the wall at a desired size.
Students can use fine point felt tip markers and create their own map.
