Walk through the Continents - Print Maps Large and Small

Print free maps large or small; from 1 page to almost 7 feet across; PC or Mac. For classroom and student use. MegaMaps requires Adobe Flash. Free online software—no downloading or installation.

Walk Through The Continents

Trace car trips; where grandparents and aunts and uncles and cousins live; the Oregon Trail and the Cumberland Gap; Huck Finn's journey; the Rocky Mountains, the Appalachians, the Mississippi River, the Columbia River and the Colorado, label states… There are any number of ways to use these maps.   They can be large enough to see clearly from across the room, and to contain many different types of information.
After printing the map pages lay them out to determine the proper order.  A one page map may help.  Starting at the upper left corner (the northwest corner), trim the pages on the right and bottom edges. Be sure not to trim the bottom edges of the bottom row of the map or the right edges of the right column. Take the upper left corner sheet and overlap it onto the sheet to its right. Tape them and then continue across to complete the top row.  Add rows one at a time.
Maps are a fundamental teaching tool. “Where” makes the lesson real and puts it into context. Too often maps for classroom use are too expensive for direct contact with students, let alone being personalized by learning activities. Free maps that can be used by students bring map activities to life. Large wall maps created by the class and individual maps created by each student increase learning, enliven the classroom and show parents the student’s progress.

These free maps are great for use in the classroom because they can be easily printed in a range of sizes for different purposes, and because the students can write, draw, and mark on their own copies of them.
•   Print out a large map for the front of the classroom, for the teacher to explain the material on, and a single page map for each student to show what they have learned.

•   Print out a multi-page map of the US or the world, and have groups of students assemble it together, like a puzzle. This is great for learning where places are in relation to each other.
•   Use Printable maps of the all of the United States to teach the geography and history of each state. State maps are made to print on color or black and white printers. Maps print full size automatically with any computer printer.
•   Outline maps can be made to show political, environmental, physical, economic and historical information. Make multiple copies of a map, and students can show different features of the place on the map—historical events, physical/geologic features, land use—urban, farm, suburban, etc. political—states, borders, capitals, family histories, wildlife, habitat, types of environment—grassland, forest, agriculture, changes in one place over time and many more.

By coloring and writing on the map, students make it “their own”. Map work moves from rote to fun. The larger map format not only allows more detail because of its larger scale, it also makes it easy for several student to work together on one map. Students can each have a small map, while the teacher explains material on a larger map at the front. Maps to complement a variety of lessons. Have your students learn WHERE it happened.

     Maps that Teach take advantage of the fact that geography is spatial. They also utilize the way kids learn best, by actively participating in their learning; learning by doing.   As students assemble the maps, they build a permanent mental picture of their world.
      From Maps that Teach, a student will learn about the continents and where they are in relation to each other; the countries of the world, their capitals and major cultural landmarks, physical features; what is far and what is near.
     For the United States, students will learn the states, their capitals, major physical features, and important historic routes that established connections between parts of the country. Students need more than a rote memorization of state names and capitals in order to make U.S. geography meaningful. They should have an understanding of where states are in relation to each other, and the physical characteristics of each region. U.S. students should have a permanent mental picture of their country in their heads, so that any thing they learn about their country can immediately be related to a place.
     Maps that Teach are also a lot of fun. They are all played as games, individually or in a group, competitively or not. Can you point to Zimbabwe on a map of Africa? Do you know where the Vietnam war took place? Can you find the Spice Islands (on a map, not in a boat)? Done as a complete program, Maps that Teach will give a student a solid basis in both U.S. and world geography. It is an easy and fun way for your kid to know, "Where in the world am I?"
     Maps that Teach have several different formats of learning maps, to be used in conjunction with each other:      For each continent or major region of the world, we offer an on-line, interactive map. When the mouse cursor is moved over an area, its name and capital can be seen. These maps can be used to ask, and then check, correct identification of states or countries and their capitals.
     For each of these areas, there is also an interactive map puzzle, in which a country or state appears, to be placed in the correct place on the map. Each map puzzle also has a similar program for learning the capitals. Because they are interactive, map puzzle help students learn a permanent picture of the map.
     Further, there is a map puzzle of major cultural landmarks around the world, and maps of the major physical features of the world, and of the US. It is one thing to learn that the Appalachian mountains run from Maine down into Georgia; actually putting the Appalachians in the proper place on a map makes it memorable.
     We also offer free US and world maps (outline maps) to be printed out on any PC printer, in sizes ranging from a single page to over 7 feet across. Since the maps are free, they can be used freely - tracing the route of Around the World in Eighty Days, or Magellan's Voyage, or the journey of Lewis and Clark; drawing pictures of the forts along the Oregon Trail; marking trade routes and explorations. Mark, trace, draw, color or write on them—they are meant to be used.      By using the full range of maps in Maps that Teach—countries, capitals, monuments, mountain ranges, rivers - students will gain a permanent mental map of the US and of the world. They will have the basis of a life-long knowledge of geography, and a beginning to all the knowledge for which geography is the basis.

Suggestions for using the maps in Maps that Teach:

     Each continent's Map Puzzle teaches the name and location of the countries and capitals. A country appears on the screen, with its name, and the student places it in the correct position on a map of the continent. In a similar game, the capital has to be placed in the correct country. A separate game has students place major mountain ranges (Andes, Himalayas, Alps), rivers, deserts and jungles on a map of the world. Learned this way, a basic knowledge of where features are becomes a permanent mental picture. Yet another map teaches the location and significance of major world monuments.
     The United States map puzzle shows a state with its name, to be placed in the correct location. The capitals are then placed (in a separate game) within their state. Students can learn the location of the physical features—mountains, rivers, lakes, etc.—and their location in relation to the state boundaries, to form an enduring mental picture of the U.S.
     On-line interactive maps show the countries and capitals of a continent or region—Asia, Africa, South America, Europe, Middle East or Central America—as the computer mouse moves over the country. Surrounding areas of land or water are also named.
     With on-line interactive maps, students can give an answer, then check it by moving the computer mouse, or one student can label a country and its capitals (with a pencil or pointer), then another can use the computer mouse to check his answer. Another way to use these maps is to print them out, have the student write the country and capital on the map, and then check the answers with the computer.
     MegaMaps will print outline maps on an ordinary PC printer from a single page to over 7 feet across. They can be used to compliment the study of any period of history where there was migration or movement—which is almost all of them. A large version can be printed and used as a puzzle for students to assemble, then the map can be hung on the wall. Younger students may want to cut out pictures and paste on the appropriate places on the map.
     Students can trace anything from the journey of Lewis and Clark to the routes of the Underground Railroad to the main battles of the Civil War on the U.S. map. Any place it would be useful to have a map that can be changed or drawn upon, you can use these free maps. The world maps can be used similarly, to show voyages of discovery, migrations, the spread of empires, etc.

HOW do your children do in school?

Immediately I ask the parents of very smart or independent children to pass by. And the opinion of those who do not check the lessons is also not interesting)) Only 2nd grade, we do homework, sometimes for 3-4 hours ((English eats up a lot of time, the surrounding ... now mtsko, generally a nightmare (The tasks seem to be not difficult and my child is not stupid, maybe I'm doing something wrong or don't understand? I have a feeling that I teach my child myself, and the school grades((((How are you?

Anchilope **

24.04.2017 23:07

Well, I couldn't say that. Indeed, a child can do homework for three or four hours. but this is because, having written the first letter, he hangs for 15 minutes, looking thoughtfully out the window and thinking about something of his own. Therefore, 90% of my help is kicks and braking. Sometimes it happens that some tasks are not clear, especially if a step is taken from the template discussed in the lesson. Well, English - yes, we do it together every time. But still, he does, and I control and correct, explain, if I stumbled on something.

For myself, I immediately decided that letting it go by itself was not an option. I also taught myself. If they had supported me in time, then my path to Moscow State University would have been much easier. But I was a girl, the lost year was not critical. It was important for me to teach my son to learn, to develop the right approach. It's easier for a concerned parent than for the best teacher with a whole class.

Exactly the same. My daughter has speech therapy problems, we sort it out with her practically letter by letter and task points. Homework never takes less than 3.5 hours. Now my daughter has started reading. the page of the textbook no longer takes an hour - it's already easier. Certainly. But still, this was not constantly explained to us. I didn't understand at school. ah, so that's what it was. Question - what for I take her to school? especially with occasional "chain letters" from the teacher "teaching your kids is your responsibility. parents". And your duty then - what, dear teacher? serve hours and get paid? at the same time, he does not clap his ears in the lesson, he honestly tries to do something - the teacher confirms. I just scored at MCKO. I already know that my child is not doing well. I already know. that she will not have time to complete half of the buildings, because she will read these tasks very slowly and settle their meanings in her head. What I don't know is what to do with it. and none of the creators of the ICAC and wise teachers can tell me this. I just can't wait for the holidays. We will do it all the same, but without this terrible school and lessons - just according to our speech therapy classes and simulators to the account.

I also have a first-grader speech therapy boy. Mathematics for 5 after the basic course, learn ru and a pair of exercise books. Our SR program is easy, so my vice versa now wants more and more mathematics. Initially, I was afraid that it would be in triplets. At the lesson, he does not absorb information, academic performance is only from behind the house. assignments and my strong control. Counting on the fly is still a game, it really develops counting speed in children. We have a clear progress after a month of daily classes. We are now at war with the Russians, because of speech therapy he writes words very strangely. For example - Lilac - wrote here - Lilac - I say, what is this? and he says so - Violet. This is obvious speech therapy, and he has a lot of such words, he himself modifies them as he wants. I haven't figured out how to deal with this yet. But we write, we write, we write a lot. Reading on the test was said to be normal, but in comparison with the older child, of course, it is much weaker. Again, we read, we read, every day. In general, I consider reading, until I read a couple of thick books on my own, I will not normally get better, no matter what they write here. And so it also happens that I read the task, but did not understand what was required of him. I make you read and think. I also noticed that I would leave it alone with me, in five minutes I would come and do everything. Those. he is often distracted by others, in the classroom the same effect - he cannot collect thoughts.

Also 2nd grade. In general, there is no such feeling that the school does not teach. In sleeping subjects, we have a young teacher, this is her first set, and she is still studying at the correspondence school. Nevertheless, while the child understands everything in the classroom. Not once have I had to explain a new topic to her or fill in any gaps. We do the lessons quickly, the maximum fixed time is 1 hour 15 minutes. We simply don’t have 3-4 hours, and my child will “tick” if he sits at the lessons for so long. A foreign language takes a lot of time, yes, but we do it in parts, we partially go ahead so as not to sit for hours later. Okruzhayka how can eat away a lot of time I do not understand. Do you have Pleshakov? Our standard task is to read 3-4 pages, but in fact the text there per page is 5 minutes, 3 tasks in TVET (they do the rest in class) - well, 15 minutes. Projects are known in advance and we do them again in several stages, at your leisure, with my organizational assistance. For example, today my daughter has the City of Russia project. On Friday, on the way home, we discussed where we went lately, she chose the city. We remembered what sights we saw there, what we can take for slides - now the structure of the presentation has already been devised. On Saturday we spent 10 minutes choosing the best photos. On Sunday, my daughter inserted them into the presentation and chose the slide design - that's another 10 minutes. I wrote the text - literally 1-2 sentences. Here is the finished presentation. Yesterday, the child spent 5 minutes to review it again and be ready to present. All. You can, of course, rest against the horn, so that everything is all by yourself, or make such a presentation that all mouths gape. But we have no such goal. Our goal is to get it done with as little downtime as possible. With NG we are gradually moving to independent preparation of lessons. My task is to evenly distribute the load, to check whether everything is clear in the task. Explain and help if unclear. Or help with a presentation. We have a different situation only with the French language. Here 5s are the result of hard work at home. But with our language in general, everything is not easy. At school, it is taught 2 times a week for 40 minutes. At the same time, the teacher took a textbook for schools with in-depth study of the language, i. e. with lessons at least 3 times a week. Naturally, we do not have time to go through this textbook, although at every parent meeting, right up to April, they try to convince me of the opposite, that given the time, it is already simply ridiculous. The only thing that was achieved - 1 extra. per week, optionally, they started in March, but since not the whole group goes there, the teacher deals with them not according to the main textbook, but additionally. And we will have to go through pages 50-60 of the textbook on our own in the summer. And from the 3rd grade there will be another textbook, which, of course, we will not have time to go through again. There is some kind of dead end here, which you have to rake on your own. (((

I am in 2nd and 7th grade. In the beginning, she helped both, controlled them. But with the younger I help much more. And the teacher gives worse, and the child is different, but demands more. Some independent and test - the child does not remember why. They write every day. The eldest is in 7th grade. I help if asked, but rarely. Also endless verification and control.

At what age did the child start school? There are many problems in our education. The system that was built, and on which we flew into space, was killed in the 80-90s. After this blow, the institute of repeaters began. And now it's horrendous what's going on. So, many children in elementary school do not want to learn, there is no motivation.

They have an extension until 19:00, but I only leave it once a week, and then until 17:00. We have an active sport. Lessons are almost always done at home. Children endure, of course, it is interesting at school, they will take a walk, and play, and feed well. But in general, it’s hard for them on an after-school, especially at first.

Girls, these are bad teachers for your children, no luck. We have an excellent teacher, now the 4th grade, the child fully understands the material at school, she has never explained it herself, but my job is to make her sit down for lessons, fight dirt in notebooks, laziness, etc. But in English, the teacher is simply no, he doesn’t explain anything properly, he comes completely with an empty head, we teach in courses ..

not excellent, but the program is mastered, at home no one deals with the explanation of the material. We have written a VPR in Russian (27 people in the class) without triples, fives - 5. I think it’s an excellent result. We didn’t study at home, the teacher prepared the children at the lessons.

You are right. My son is in the 4th grade, no questions, not an excellent student, but he studies on his own. Today I myself compiled an essay from Internet options. I think this is better than writing off from a solution book. To write yourself is still anrial. From cool - I wrote the final test in Russian for 5. Tests are a salvation for dysgraphics. One sentence under dictation - and everything would be clear ... There is a tutor for English, I'm not in the subject, I don't even check, but he doesn't do homework with the teacher - I'm against it.

My youngest daughter was going to the teacher. from whom my eldest daughter studied without any problems. I've had a strong opinion for a year now. that the teacher was replaced during the summer holidays with a fundamentally different person. The question remains from the first sentence - and do what now? You are lucky to have a teacher. we don’t, but we have to live in the realities that we have. And we are all sincerely happy for you.

Mine is in the 4th grade, Germany, DZ receive once a week, the deadline for execution is until Monday. Very few in my opinion. But this is the policy of our teacher, she does not consider it necessary to give DZ. Until the middle of the second grade, there was another teacher, then she became seriously ill (cancer) and the current class was taken, she was already retired. My grades are good, but the load could be more, they hardly teach poetry, they don’t write essays, they don’t write essays, only dictations, there is no extracurricular reading in principle, I can’t teach reading, it’s not interesting for her, although both my husband and I read a lot. My daughter's friend studies at another school, they have a different picture, for the Easter holidays the girl was given the task of learning two poems, writing an essay and something else, I don’t remember. Mine is nothing. A lot depends on the teacher though. P.S. Our school is the oldest in the city, with a history of 110 years, the best Grundschule in the city. I see no reason to change now, Fachunterricht (separation by subject) will begin from the 5th grade, then we'll see. P.P.S. We are in Brandenburg, in Brandenburg and Berlin Grundschule (elementary school) - 6 years, in other states - 4 years.

We have a capable smart girl, an excellent student (now 7th grade), but I can’t say that she studied completely on her own (especially in the beginning). Indeed, everything is by myself only from the 6th grade, and then at the beginning of the year I still "kept my finger on the pulse" out of habit. There were no problems with regular lessons. But help was needed: organize the time, remind, check... Back in the beginning, there were a lot of tasks, in my opinion, just not for my age. For example, ours could not make a presentation on a computer in grades 1-2 on our own. And with the choice of the main thing from the Internet, there were difficulties and I was simply poorly oriented in the programs, and I even taught how to formulate the query in Google correctly, it didn’t work out for me right away. I studied slowly ... In the 4th grade I could already do it myself, but I still ruled. Or from the 2nd grade they wrote essays. The first of them is horror and a nightmare, we discussed them together for a long time and persistently, I suggested ... There were still many creative tasks, which my daughter did not even know how to approach, I also taught . ..

Yes, here are the essays in the 2nd grade, I just don’t understand how you can write without help ... and I help presentations on the world around, provided that many children and finished tell with difficulty .. We pull, we try, but everything is too intense now. Or maybe it depends on the teacher? In parallel classes, everything is calm according to the parents. And those who study at 3-4 have generally ceased to strain, well, what will be, then it will be

You know, I don’t have an unequivocal opinion whether such difficult tasks for kids are good or bad... And if they hadn’t been asked since the elementary grades, would children in grades 5-6 be able to do this? Maybe they themselves would have matured and coped with ease, or maybe thanks to training since childhood in high school, it’s easy? I don’t know . .. I had enough time to study with my daughter, so I don’t complain much :) But the fact is that as much as we “creaked” together we sculpted essays in the 2nd grade, she writes them so freely now in the 7th (and now essays, summaries, detailed answers to questions are just constantly).

I agree with you, there is also no unequivocal opinion. Fortunately, I keep everything under control, I study with her and it’s not clear whether it will be easier later from such a load or if she herself would come to this ... the teacher says that then it will be very easy for her, but is there any point in the fact that now we are plowing like this...

I don’t remember much already... I remember, among other things, the whole 2nd grade was intensively writing the characteristics of the characters in different works. The difficulty is not to slide down to a retelling, namely, briefly, but succinctly, to reveal these characters, so that there is a connected story, and not just answers to individual questions, and the daughters were difficult questions at the end like "the relationship of the author to the hero, my attitude to the hero", so as not to repeat yourself and justify your point of view . ..

Of course it also depends on the parents. Here, after all, you can argue in different ways ... I call it - to teach to learn and, if you really do (make efforts), then do it well. Moreover, if the child is capable, then the abilities must be developed, while the child himself burns and tries. By the way, this does not negate a bunch of other extracurricular activities and simple running in the yard. When a child wants everything everywhere, there is enough time. It’s more difficult for those who don’t want children ... Then you can sit with your parents for 4-5 hours, but there’s little use :(

And here, on the contrary, I studied grades 1-4 myself, also an excellent student, I didn’t even open my notebooks and diary for checking, I knew that there were only 5s. And this year, the 5th grade, there are a lot of lessons, mine is not used to such a volume, so I have to push her, otherwise she will do all the lessons in one place - she is too lazy and wants to get rid of them quickly. You have to check everything inside and out, as she is in a hurry and makes a lot of mistakes. Compositions are a separate song. In elementary school, they were almost never written. In addition, "we" do not like to read books from the word "absolutely". Accordingly, she has nowhere to draw a literary style for writing. I have to double-check everything and explain that the way she wrote it sounds ugly. She is still excellent at studies, but this is my great merit this year)))) And it seems to me that as soon as I stop controlling her (and this will happen sooner or later), then, of course, she will move to ratings, and, as it were, not in triples.

It's nice when children study well, and it's even nicer when you help them, explain, and they LISTEN to it and delve into it. My fifth grader doesn’t need anything at all, she yells: “I don’t want to! This phrase is used always and everywhere, even when you just need to read something in the literature. And I’m generally silent about completing assignments in Russian or mathematics. You try to help her, to explain, - she plugs her ears and buzzes, like she doesn’t hear anything. She fought for 4.5 years, spat, sit yourself poking around as you want. She immediately plunged into the "twos" up to the top of her head. But recently, other estimates have begun to slip. She, probably, is already becoming ashamed of being a "round loser. "

We have the same thing. The child is not stupid, rather inattentive and lazy. But there are several problems, the fish rots from the head, an absolutely incompetent woman, she needs tinsel, not knowledge. She panics because of ugly handwriting and dirt in notebooks, while she cannot teach children the school curriculum ... 1) Very voluminous dz, unbearable if you are doing something else. I went to the director, began to write in brackets to learn ... Normal? Can I really tell a child, you can not teach ... My experience is that the less school dz, the brighter the head of children ... there should be time for sports, reading, hobbies ... 2) There are no children on self-study. Grandmothers, nannies, non-working mothers. Dz is done for 3-4 hours with chewing. 3) A lot of tasks not for age, there is no strategy for completing tasks. For example, essays. I write them to him according to the criteria found on the Internet, learns by heart, writes on 3. Literature on stupid workbooks, there are no keys on the Internet, we are looking for information for each lesson all together: mother, son, grandmother. 4) EVERYTHING projects... almost every week... so I have nothing to do on weekends... And I work 12 hours a day. My eyes hurt from the computer. The child will not do it. I don't think it's age appropriate. I will spend more time with him, correcting his mistakes, he will grow up, he will begin to do it himself. 5) Can't explain. The child does not know how to determine cases, declensions, incorrectly divides and multiplies in a column ... In general, an absolute disappointment. She constantly gives tests according to collections, while we know which ones ... many just learn the answers to the tests, they don’t study the world and literature ... She just says so ... but what was there to prepare for then ??? Is it okay that we repeat the entire section of the house? I do not teach a child to cheat. 6) Before the VPR, she didn’t give a single probe . .. she didn’t even recommend doing them ... Every day they asked a bunch, either to do it, or to do the probes for the VPR ... That’s why ask dz in Russian or mathematics from a textbook , if you have a VLOOKUP for him tomorrow???? it was different in other schools. An elite school is considered ... But this is all solely due to the fact that all dz is done by parents, and tutors prepare children for exams ... And what do we want if all the rabble who left after 9why did he go to a teacher training college and study there as a teacher, and those who graduated from a specialized specialty in universities are not ready to work for a penny among incompetent colleagues?

There are a lot of near-academic tasks. Which take time. For example, May 9 is approaching. In this regard, in addition to homework, projects around the world, preparation for the final control, etc. I was asked to draw a portrait of a veteran on an A3 sheet. Compose, write and format a letter to a veteran. Independently find and learn a poem on topic 9May. This is mandatory. Of the desirable - to help in the design of the school by May 9 (pigeons on the windows, a poster, etc.). It all falls mainly on the shoulders of the parents.

The verse was chosen and memorized. I'm just saying that there are a lot of such similar "near-academic" tasks during the year. Either on the topic of the Ministry of Emergencies they oblige everyone to draw, then according to the traffic rules everyone must draw, for the holidays tasks (draw, cut out, make posters, crafts, search for and teach poetry).

Yes, we have the same thing at school. I had to urgently teach children to draw according to manuals (they never liked this business and did not know how) in order to perform constant drawing tasks. Presentations are also from the 1st grade (I also had to quickly teach the child PP), etc. In autumn, for example, you need to have time to go to the forest / park in order to collect "natural material", from which then until spring some crafts will be sculpted (also with the help of parents, of course). In general, you will not get bored.)

Now the child has been studying almost on his own for two years (6th grade) - together we only draw up a program and have an English tutor. I began to go in for sports normally, go to different circles, walk, get enough sleep, motivation and purposefulness appeared.

8th and 5th grade. Teachers put deuces with a slight movement of the hand, without any rewriting and corrections. The material that caused misunderstanding and, as a result, difficulties in using it, is not worked out and not explained, so the ratings in the journal have long been abandoned. I realized that the knowledge of children depends only on me. If I explain the material, the knowledge will come. If left to chance, there will be a hole. Of course, this is not the case for all subjects. I keep my finger on the pulse of the older one in mathematics, and the younger one in literature and history. Since now, in the 4th quarter, I personally got tired of the school, I let go of the reins, and the grades immediately moved down. Okay, annuals without triples are already good.

Because the education system used to be different. There was less crap, children were not loaded with stupid projects. The teachers were really teachers who cared about your child. My first teacher must have been my second mother and I cried when the holidays came. Homework was assigned according to the material worked out and according to the strength of the child. And now homework in most cases - for parents. My son had a task in the first grade .. only they passed the prescription - write a fairy tale based on Bianca, arrange it in the form of a book and draw an illustration for it. Asked today, handed in tomorrow. This is in addition to other lessons. While this will be, parents will have to sit with their children, do stupid tasks for hours. And about how textbooks are composed, I generally keep quiet. Our teacher cannot establish discipline in the classroom, she fights with the children for half the lesson, so there is not much left to explain the new topic. Then the parents explain at home.

Not a genius, now LIT is in the 5th grade, he studies on his own, it has always been like this, sometimes he only comes for clarification. I don’t even look at the notebooks, I don’t know what is asked. I only draw for him and do projects, for me it’s better for him to play football at this time, jump with friends or just blunt with an iPad.
