Abstract

The cognitive starting abilities needed for the learning of the physical map, were evaluated for a population of Israeli Elementary School students at Grades 3 to 6 and assessed according to a sequential theoretical model developed in this study. It was found that these abilities develop with age and that the majority of Grade 4 students possess some of these cognitive requirements.In the light of the results of this research, a new unit for teaching mapping skills to Grade 4 Elementary School students was recommended.
