What I found easy about map skills is creating the key. For me coming up with states, capitals, and mountain ranges is easy. Also creating the names for each state and capital was easy. That part to me is very fun.
What I struggle with the most is longitude and latitude. Scale also can puzzle me at times. Longitude and Latitude are confusings to me because I get north and south mixed up. I struggle with scale because they are all different.
Basic map skills are important because if you were every lost and you only had a paper map then you would be able to find your way back. Map skills help me better understand geography because it tells me about continents, states and other landforms, and without them I wouldn't know about other parts of the world.
