Maps are important tools. They can help us learn about a place. They can help us get from one place to another. They can also be used to find the distance between two places. There are many things that a map can tell you, but there are only five things that all maps have in common. All maps have a title. The title helps you to know what you can learn from the map. A map must always show its orientation. This means that it must always show which way is north. This helps the reader understand how to relate the map to his or her surroundings. The third thing that all maps have in common is a scale. A scale is useful for understanding real-life distances. For example, one inch on a map might represent ten miles in the real world. A map also must have a legend. A legend explains all of the symbols, lines, and colors used on the map. Finally, all maps use a grid. A grid is helpful for finding specific points on a map. A grid can help you find the Jefferson Memorial on a map of Washington, D.C. It can also help you find the city of Hope on a map of Arkansas.

Little Loon Learns a LessonBy Joyce Furstenau

The loon family made their nest near the edge of Lake Louise. Late that spring, their two eggs hatched, and the little loon chicks rode about on their mother's back for several days. When Mother loon was certain her babies were ready for a swimming lesson, each one was gently nudged from her back into the cool waters of the lake.

The little chicks swam about by themselves in the water for the first time. It was hard for Mother loon to keep track of them. When one little chick swam left, the other one swam right. One spring afternoon, the littlest chick swam around a large clump of bushes. Mother loon did not notice he was gone. Before he knew it, the little loon was lost.

He swam around in the brown reeds until he spotted a beautiful whooping crane standing quite still at the water's edge.

"Have you seen my mother?" asked the little loon.

The crane had been standing motionless. "Go away," said the crane. "Can't you see I'm eating here? There's only room for one. Go away!" The little loon lowered his head and swam away.

A flock of mallard ducks startled the little loon as they landed on the lake to look for food. He swam behind some low tree limbs. The little loon peeked out at the ducks. Finally, he built up the courage to ask the ducks, "Have you seen my mother?"

"Wha-a-a-t? Wha-a-a-t?" quacked the ducks. "Wha-a-a-t do you want?" they quacked again.

"I say, have you seen my mother?" repeated the little loon loudly.

The ducks continued quacking, "Wha-a-a-t? Wha-a-a-t? Wha-a-a-t?" The little loon spoke slowly this time, "Have - you - seen - my - mother?" but the ducks were quacking so loudly that it was impossible to hear anything. Finally, the ducks swam off in a group leaving the little loon alone again.

A seagull swooped down next and landed on a long tree limb lying beside the lake. The little loon paddled over to the seagull. "Excuse me, but I'm a loon, and I'm looking for my mother. Have you seen her?"

"A loon? You're a loon? I wish I were a loon. Loons can fly fast and dive deep. I sure wish I was a loon," chattered the seagull.

"I got separated from my mother, and I can't seem to find her. Could you please help me?" begged the little loon. The seagull had already flown away before he could finish his question.

The little loon was almost ready to give up when a red-necked grebe landed beside him on the lake - kerplop.

"I'm back!" drawled the grebe. "It's good to be home again. I had a nice winter, but springtime at Lake Louise is always my favorite time of year! Migrating wears me out! What's up, little loon?"

The little loon looked at the grebe with wide eyes. "Wow! That was some landing. If I could fly like that, maybe I could find my mother," he said.

"Crick- crick - crick! You can!" said the grebe. "You're a loon, right? If you're a loon, you can fly like the wind and swim like a fish. You can find her. Just swim out to the middle of the lake. You can do it!"

"I can?" said the little loon.

"Yes, you can!" answered the grebe. "Just swim out a little farther, and you'll find your mother. Don't give up!"

The little loon felt his hope returning. He paddled swiftly towards the center of the lake. He heard the grebe call after him, "Don't give up, little loon!" Just then, the little loon heard his mother's long, low wail.

"Mother!" chirped the little loon. "I'm coming, Mother!" He swam towards the sound of his mother's call. She called once more, and just as quickly as that, he found his family once again. It was a joyous reunion for all.

The little loon told his parents about the red-necked grebe who had encouraged him and helped him find his way home. They were all thankful for the grebe's help, and the little loon learned his lesson.

A Bridge Across the BayBy Kathleen W. Redman

Bridges are a very common part of travel. Even a short trip in a car - or on foot - can cross a bridge. Bridges have many purposes. Some of the smallest bridges are footbridges that cross a small stream or pond. Other bridges allow cars to cross other roads. Some bridges cross wide rivers. Some bridges go all the way across lakes or bays.

One such big bridge is one of the most photographed bridges in the world. It's the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, California. This big suspension bridge joins the two sides of San Francisco Bay at the Golden Gate Strait. In the early 1900s, there was no way to get across the San Francisco Bay except by boat. To get from one side of the Bay to the other took a twenty-minute boat ride.

People wanted a faster way to get across the bay. Most people said the distance was too far for a bridge. Many experts said building a bridge that long was impossible. An engineer named Joseph Strauss did not agree. He said a bridge could be built across the Bay.

Many people were against the plans for a bridge. The War Department said it would get in the way of shipping traffic. The ferry service was also against the plans. A bridge would hurt the ferry business. The automobile industry - still very new at the time - was in favor of a bridge across the Bay.

Construction on the bridge started in 1933. The huge suspension bridge took four years to complete. It cost thirty-five million dollars to build. No records remain of how many people worked on the bridge.

The construction is known for its safety. Steelworkers who worked on the bridge were protected by a movable safety net under the bridge. The net saved nineteen steelworkers when they fell from the bridge. The workers on the bridge were among the first to wear hard hats on the job. Only 11 workers died during the whole four years of work. In contrast, it is believed that 96 men died during the construction of the Hoover Dam in the early 1930s.

Weeklong bridge-opening festivities started on May 27, 1937. Before the bridge was opened to cars, two hundred thousand people crossed the 1.7-mile long bridge on foot and roller skates! The international orange bridge is a big attraction in San Francisco. People come from all over the world to see this famous bridge.

First Nation's CrisisBy Mary Lynn Bushong

Life for native Canadians was never easy. When white men came to North America, the First Nations' way of life was changed. Some were good changes; other changes made things harder.

One of the good changes was the horse. Horses made hunting bison easier. Horses moved people faster and helped carry or pull loads.

The people traded beaver and other furs to the Europeans. In return, they got guns, warm wool blankets, and iron cooking utensils. These things made their lives easier.

The Europeans brought new diseases to the New World. Disease brought suffering and death. Some white traders supplied whiskey to the native people. This ruined lives, families, and whole tribes. By the 1880s, so many bison had been killed by white hunters that there were few left for the native people. They depended on the bison to supply food, clothing, and materials for their shelters.

One of the great Cree chiefs was Big Bear. He was not a large man as his name suggests. He was short and stocky, barely four feet five inches tall. His face was pockmarked from smallpox. He was an experienced warrior who was also kind and generous. Big Bear became chief after his father died. It was a difficult time for his people.Bison were becoming hard to find, and people were starving.

The Canadian government came to the chiefs wanting to make a treaty. The government offered to make sure the tribes did not go hungry and would give them land, equipment, advice, and supplies to begin farming. All of that, to give up their vast territories and settle down.

Chiefs like Big Bear and Poundmaker felt they had no choice; they needed food and supplies badly. They had to accept the treaty. Poundmaker claimed that the treaty was not good enough. He was right.

It was not long before the people needed the help they were promised. The things needed for farming were slow to come. They received no respect or fair treatment from the government agents. In an effort to please the taxpayers of Ontario and Quebec, spending in the Northwest was cut, especially the things promised to the First Nations in treaties.

In June 1884, a conflict broke out on Poundmaker's reserve. What the people needed most was food. When it was supplied, the people quieted. Even so, nothing really changed until March 26, 1885, when full rebellion broke out.

While many lives were lost in the following conflict, many others were saved by Poundmaker and Big Bear. They refused to allow their hot-blooded warriors to kill as they wished.

Even so, after the fighting was over, both Poundmaker and Big Bear were imprisoned. Both men did poorly in prison. Poundmaker was released after six months when his health became bad. He died a short time later. Even though Big Bear had always tried to be a friend to white men, he was treated harshly. It was only when he, too, became ill, that he was released. His spirit broken, he died soon after. Perhaps, if the Canadian government had been willing to keep its promises, all the trouble would have been avoided.

How Does a Walrus Stay Warm?By Erin Horner

What do you wear when it is cold? Do you put on a long-sleeved shirt? How about a jacket? When we are cold we put on layers of warm clothes. But what does a walrus do when the weather is cold? How does it stay warm? Walruses live in the icy Arctic. They cannot put on a coat to stay warm, but they can use layers -- layers of blubber! A walrus's hide is about one inch thick. Tucked underneath this tough skin is a layer of blubber. This layer of fat is from three to six inches thick. Just like our layers of clothes, a walrus's layer of blubber helps it stay warm. Walruses dive deep into the icy Arctic to look for food. When they dive, their warm blood moves deep down inside their body. Their blubber then traps the heat. This helps to keep the walrus's body a warm and toasty 99 degrees Fahrenheit. It's a good thing that walruses have blubber to keep them warm. It would be pretty hard for them to put on a coat. But since they can weigh more than two tons, it would be even harder to find a coat that fits!

How Does a Walrus Stay Warm?

Questions

1. What is a walrus's layer of fat called?

2. In this passage, the word hide means ______.

A. to cover upB. safetyC. to keep from being seenD. the skin of an animal

Finding Our WayBy Beth Beutler

"This map is hard to read," Carol said as she walked along a busy sidewalk with Patrick. "There are so many streets in this city!"

"Here, let me take a look at it," Patrick said.

Carol handed him the map of all the attractions in San Francisco. They had decided to take a self-guided walking tour of the city and had picked up this map in the visitor center.

Patrick also took Carol's hand and led her to a nearby bench. "Let's sit down and figure this out," he said.

They took a few moments to review the map. First, they figured out where they actually were. Patrick pointed to a red star on the map.

"That red star represents the art museum...didn't we just pass that?"

"Yes," Carol answered. "It's about a block down the street."

"Good. Let's go back there, and we can follow the map from there."

Carol agreed. "I guess it is easier to find your way when you know where you are starting from!"
