PACK 1 What US City Skyline is That? Who doesn't like the magic of city skylines? I know I do and my class loves them as well. These worksheets on city skylines worked great. The task here is to review each city skyline PLUS review the other clue on the worksheet. Then identify which city it is from the clues. The other clue may be figures about the city, the city's logo or flag, a map of the city's area, or a logo of the sporting club that is based in that city. The task is challenging and fun, and normally requires the student to be creative in how they investigate the answer. Do I use Google Maps? Do I use Wikipedia? Do I try to find the answer by identifying a building on the skyline? The worksheets are a great library filler and you can always pull one out for that spare moment. There are 20 maps in all. ********************************** PACK 2 What City is This? These worksheets of printable maps each has a simple clue for that students use to determine what city is outlined on the sheet. Best used with Google Earth. The clue might be a longitude or latitude. The task is simple, but the activity is challenging. The maps require the student to use their problem solving skills to find the answer Students can also use the layout of the city as well to assist in working out the name. The worksheets have an answer key at the end. There are 10 maps in all. ********************************** **BONUS** PACK 3 This Slide Deck of maps each have a simple clue that can be used as a class activity.

The clue might be a longitude or latitude, a key city, or a geographical feature. Use Google Earth to find the country from the clues provided. The task is simple, but the activity is challenging.

Three packs of the popular map activity for the price of two. These packs of printable maps each has a series of maps with a simple clue for each one that students use to determine what US State or Country is outlined on the sheet. Best used with Google Earth. The clue might be a longitude or latitude, a key city, or a geographical feature. The task is simple, but the activity is challenging. And some maps involve a bit of problem solving by the student. Students can also use the shape of the US State or country to help in working out the name. A great source I used to make these worksheets was http://www.amcharts.com/svg-maps/. Here you can download the outline of the maps and import them into Illustrator and move states around or whatever you might like to do for your own worksheets. The worksheets have an answer key at the end. There are more than 50 maps in all. Great for teaching about longitude and latitude. I use these packs in the library when I'm showing students around Google Earth. ********************* See more here: Middle School Resources ********************* Learn more about the author at Malcom Brown ******************************************** 100% Money Back guarantee - if there is anything at all about this pack that disappoints or was not as expected, please get back to me and your investment will be completely refunded - no issue at all. *********************************************
