    The document summarizes interviews with three students from Susitna Elementary about a map of North America. Student A, a first grader, knew the map showed a continent but did not know the names of any countries. Student B, a kindergartener, correctly identified North America as the continent and knew Alaska was on the map. Student C, another first grader, also correctly identified North America and could see islands on the map like Greenland. All three students believed the bottom of the map was warmer than the top.
