What buildings have we that are very helpful to the people?
What interesting places have you visited in your neighborhood?
What other places would you like to visit?

PREPARATION FOR A TRIP TO SOME HILLTOP, OBSERVATORY, TOWER OR ROOF-GARDEN FROM WHICH AN EXTENSIVE VIEW CAN BE HAD
What place shall we visit? Why? Draw a plan to include the school and the place to be visited.
How far must we go? Shall we ride or walk? In what direction shall we go?
When we are up high we can look over the whole neighborhood. First, try to find our school. In what direction shall we need to face? Then let us notice what lies between us and our school. See if you can find any park or large building which you know. Try to find the street or road upon which your home stands. Then look beyond our school for any other familiar building or park, and look for your home if you did not see it before. Notice how far the town stretches and try to see what cuts it off or bounds it.
Next we shall turn and look in the opposite direction. What direction will that be? Find any familiar places. How can you know which are homes, schools, churches or factories? See how far the town extends and what cuts off or bounds it on this side.
[p33]
In what other directions shall we look? Again we shall notice the familiar and unfamiliar places and the town boundaries.
