Students find the area they live in on the map and compare it geographically to others.
Students then expand their research to find what makes up a census division. At the more advanced level, students create their own map and are able to synthesize census divisions on a small scale. The suggested duration, procedures and solutions are included, but can be adapted to your students' particular interests or abilities. A provincial map of your area with census divisions marked on it. A copy of your school map.
