The instructor reads to children:

• The surface of the earth is a series of directions, of vertical, horizontal, oblique, and curved directions, taking the form of plains, hills, mountains, valleys, slopes, and the various forms of water.
• The objects on the surface of the ground such as trees, houses, boats, etc., should be made small — very small as compared with the surface of the ground. A large tree by comparison would suggest a small valley, and a small tree a large valley.
• A tree or house suggests land; a boat or fish, water; a bridge, a stream, etc. Use these objects to suggest the various forms of land and water.
