MAPS THAT TEACH
FREE US AND WORLD MAPS AND PUZZLES

"Maps That Teach" take advantage of the way kids learn the best by participating or doing things by themself without any interference from others, on maps by building up the given plain maps.
This software allows students to learn about where continents are and what major cultural landmarks, physical features, capital of countries and distance from one country to the other. In this way students get a mental picture in their heads of the countries so whenever they learn something about that place they can say where the place is. And example of this can be seen where the students get a map of Asia and they have to put in the Himalayan Mountains, the sometimes get hints as to where to place the features.

This software can be alot of fun. It can be played as games,both individually or in groups and they can be competitive or not. it is an easy and fun way for kids to know "where in the world I am?".

Also, students not only learn about features of a map but they learn about any history that is associated with the places.

One way in which teachers can utilise "Maps That Teach", is that they can print out the maps that they need and they can have children sticking various pictures to represent the features of the maps. These teaching aids from the software can be in the form of puzzles, where children put the puzzle pieces together or it can be a large 7 feet version where pictures can be cut and paste onto the large layouts.
