We use maps, diagrams and plans in everyday life.
For example, you might use:
· A diagram to help you put together a piece of flat-pack furniture
· A plan to guide you to the toilets in a department store
· A map to find out how to get to your friend’s house
Maps, diagrams and plans should always have the following information:
· Title – this tells you what the plan, diagram or map is for
· Labels – telling you what different parts mean
· Measurements – these show the lengths on the parts of the plan, or the scale on maps
