Was the teacher right when she said a fourth grade student answered the question 'What is a purpose of a map scale' wrong by saying 'the relation between the small map and the real earth'?

The teacher is correct in a strict sense. The scale of a map allows you to take measurements on that map. So, if 1 inch = 10 miles, and the distance between two points on the map is 3 inches, then those points are 30 miles apart. Of course, they are 30 miles apart...in the real world. So, while not commonly expressed in those words, a map scale does allow you to translate between the small map and the real world! The word scale, when used in broader terms...such as the scale of a model...refers exactly to the relationship between the minature and the real world item. Let me know who wins the debate (how about half credit?)
