The map is, for excellence, a visual representation of geography space. As a language, the use of maps requires more than learning the signs and how to arrange the objects on them, but depends on a skill in the context of spatial intelligence. The present paper has as purpose to reflect upon the spatial ability in geography teaching and aims to extend knowledge of teachers in their use of cartography, as well as their ability for visualization of extensions, fluxes and intensities of the different geographical phenomena and facts, and so contribute to improve studies of high school geography.Downloads
