MAP SKILLS ASIA INTERACTIVE

The Map Skills interactive whiteboard series introduces Grade 6-8 students to our world — a world they can explore with the touch of a finger!

Map Skills: Asia provides a detailed overview of this vast and exotic continent. Thirteen lesson plans explore topics such as physical features, economic activities, and population density. Thirteen fully interactive maps and 49 activities teach and reinforce skills ranging from geography to social studies to science. A wide variety of full-color maps by Rand McNally portray important map skills and distinctive features, from latitude, longitude, and cardinal directions to countries, climate, and natural resources. Each map can be manipulated in real-time — touch a country to see photographs, video, or statistics; calculate the coordinates of a country's capital by pointing to its location; explore an ocean's depths by tapping it with a digital pen — the powers of exploration and discovery are the students' to wield.
