Topsfield Fair Map Skills

How will students be able to find their way around the Topsfield Fair?  By using their map skills, of course!

On Friday, Team Gibbas students practiced their map skills in a fun way by using the official Topsfield Fair map.  Students were given a map story about visiting The Topsfield Fair and were asked to navigate to specific locations using the compass rose, the legend, and the index.
