This coloring book is our favorite new addition this year! The children I am teaching this year are in grades K 1 3 5 7 and 10 All of them love this book I have even found myself looking forward to coloring my maps! The way the book is organized is super helpful You are generally going to have three maps to color regardless of the country/region/continent you are studying The first map is of a continent divided into specific countries The countries are all labeled with a letter inside their border so you can find the country name on the facing page and color the name to match the color of the country The second map is sometimes "zoomed in" with a smaller section covered For example when we were studying Ancient Egypt this year our first map was of the entire continent of Africa but the second map was only of Northern Africa On the second map you only color in an outline about one centimeter in width inside the border of each country Once again you color in bubble letters on the facing page that match the outline color you used in the countries The third map is a physical features map and it shows major rivers mountain ranges deserts and mountain peaks I love the way the authors widened the rivers so they can be colored in As with the previous two maps there are labels for the physical features on the facing page which are meant to be colored to match the map This technique has worked great for all the different learning styles in our home! When the children look at their colored map their eyes are automatically drawn to the label with the same color They are quickly able to identify the countries in whatever region we are studying All in all this has been a very easy to implement geography supplement for our history studies The children are learning lots of geography and best of all there is no planning required of me! The older children are producing real works of art with this book and the attention to detail that is required helps them remember what they're seeing
