Follow+the+Drinking+Gourd+Reinforcing+Activity

You are living in America before the Civil War and your house is a safe house for runaway slaves. You want to show the slaves that live on the opposite side of the neighborhood how to get to your house without getting caught. Draw a map of your neighborhood. Include major points like woods, restaurants, schools, etc. At the bottom of the map (or on another sheet of paper) write directions how to get to your house from the plantation using secret clues. If this map is stolen by a slaveowner, he should not be able to tell what it is!

For example: Straight to food then right on oil. (go to the restaurant then turn right at the gas station)
