Draw and Explore Geography: United States, Vol. 1-6 Bundle (Ages 8-13)

Description

The Draw and Explore Geography series is a great way to combine art and geography. A short description of each state is given that includes when the state became a state, its major cities and regions, and additional information such as mountains and other key features. Each is followed by an image of the state showing the cities and regions on a grid. Next, students can do one or all of the assignments that follow. They can draw half of the image in a grid that shows the left half of the picture, half of the image in a grid that shows the right half of the picture, or the entire image on an empty grid. This makes the unit completely flexible for both left-handed and right-handed students. Multiple review activities as well as an answer key are also included.

Volumes 1-5 cover the 50 states in the nation. Volume 6 is a bonus free book that explores the five U.S. territories of Guam, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Northern Mariana Islands as well as Washington, D.C. These maps include major cities or areas and other key information.
