• You must label all of the locations.

• List the important moments when a character demonstrated a connection to another person or object or to nature. In your legend, create a symbol for for these moments so that you can show the location where these significant moments of relationship-building took place on your map.
• List the important events in point form, that occurred at each area or location on your map.
• Remember to include a border, title, compass rose and legend. Make it look as much like a map as you can.
• From your list of important relationship-building events, choose the 5 most important ones according to you. Write a paragraph for each event explaining why you think it is important.
• Include a few details about the moment, but more importantly explain why each connection was so significant to the character.
• What impact did each event have on the development of the character?
