BOLTSS

Yesterday in 5/6MK we studied BOLTSS. BOLTSS is a list of things that every map has to include. They can be a key to reading a map. They're a must need accessory.

• B stands for Border. This is the perimeter of the map.
• O stands for Orientation. This is the little compass or the north arrow.
• L stands for Legend. A legend is a key to the map that tells you what the symbols mean.
• T stands for Title. This tells you what the map is about.
• S stands for Scale. This tells us about the measurement of the map in real life.
• S stands for Source. This tells us where you got the map from.
