FREE Montessori World Pin Map Printable You can make your own Montessori Style World Pin Map with this free printable! While my older kids were learning a lot about the location of the specific countries of Africa, my preschooler was working on world geography again.

At the request of a friend who wanted some ideas for a USA unit, I decided to put our activities into words and share them with you. While reading the book, Lentil, I incorporated our "Me on the Map" unit because it fit naturally with the setting and patriotic spirit of the story of the book. Please click here for more information on our Lentil activities. So our "Me on the Map" unit centered around the book Me on the Map by Joan Sweeney. I purchased this ready-made digital printable set from Teachers Pay Teachers for $4.00. It offered the flip book below and other valuable activities we used. Click here for the download Each day we read the book Me on the Map, and then focused on a particular section. This was our plan: Day 1: We focused on the me, my room, my street, and town section. Old Crow drew a map of his room by using the example from the book as a guide. We reviewed our street address. I also took a generic community map and Old Crow used a toy car to "travel around town." This allowed him to practice basic map skills and cardinal directions. Then he completed the Me, My Street, and My Town section of the flip book above. Day 2: This day we focused our attention on our state and country. This is a perfect opportunity to review/introduce topics like the president, the USA flag, monuments, statue of liberty, etc. We completed the State and Country section of the flip book. Old Crow also used watercolors and painted the US flag. We began a lapbook which will hold all flags we make that go along with the countries we study. This would also be a great time to make patriotic t-shirts (stamping stars on the front and painting stripes on the back), making patriotic windsocks, craft stick flag, or star wreath. There are many other suggestions at Enchanted Learning. Day 3 We discussed the continent section of the book. We briefly reviewed the 7 continents and then focused on North America. Then we completed the Continent and Planet section of the flip book. We had now completed the flip book so we put it all together! Day 4 We reviewed the concepts learned by using nesting cups. As he placed one cup inside another, Old Crow would tell what each represented...the state, town, etc. Then I gave Old Crow an assessment of sorts. Click here to view and print. You would just need to type your actual information on a separate sheet...like your address, state, etc. Then your child would match his information onto the assessment sheet. This unit could definitely be lengthened to allow more time and focus on each section. I hope you enjoy Me on the Map as much as we did! :) Jenny

Ok - so I wanted to make a small salt dough map of Africa for the beginning of our Africa studies. I didn't want it to be elaborate and time consuming like the one we did for Italy back week 6. So....I came up with an idea and thought I'd see how it worked. It worked well so I'm sharing it here.... I took a map of Africa. I then took wax paper and layed it over top of the map. I made up a batch of salt dough (1 cup salt, 1 cup flour and add water 1/4 cup at a time till consistency is that of playdough). Next I rolled out the dough to make it flat and placed it over the map. I then cut the map out with a soft butter knife. (In hind sight it would have been easier to just trace onto wax paper, the outline of Africa with a marker and then place that over the saltdough and cut it.) However, it worked fine for me. The next thing we did was look up a topographical map of Africa online and then form mountains and major rivers. We baked it at 250 degrees for about 30 minutes. We then painted it according to the topographical map I looked up. We used an old container (I love to recycle them for these type projects!) and placed it inside. Here is the final project:

In the search of origins of the Philistines mentioned so frequently in the Bible and now accurately lost in modern history, we have found them in Africa. Now, not knowing if this is part 1 or just another piece in the search for lost tribes mentioned in the greatest historical book ever written (The Bible). We feel this information is better to just get out now rather than accumulate along with our hundreds of posts like these historical ones we have accumulated over the years. All these works
Geography Each year, I found myself copying the same old pages of maps and other worksheets for my children. Africa was still Africa and a mountain was still a mountain, just on a different sheet of paper and printed with another cartridge of ink! I began searching for ways to integrate geography for each of them. Also wanted to cut back on printing costs. This is how our "Big Geography Book" was formed! When you open it up completely, it looks like this... And it easily folds up to be stored like this... Each continent has its own pocket which was made with 2 pieces of thick 12x12 card stock, laminated side by side... Then the sides were stapled to create pockets... It contains political and physical maps for each continent that were laminated and bound. This way they could practice with dry erase markers again and again, from one year to the next... Created a cover page for a vocabulary folder, filled with notebook paper and added divide tabs. A Notes folder was also added... And lastly, a section on landforms. The cover page was created... And worksheets were also created... Each of these folders were attached to the pockets using velcro dots. This way they could be removed with ease and returned when done... And there you have it!

Monsoon: a rare natural phenomenon Monsoon is a spectacular natural phenomenon for Indo-Pak subcontinent, South-East and East-Asia. Winds switch direction twice a year due to difference of sea and land temperatures. Summer winds bring a lot of moisture from Indian ocean, that causes very wet rainy seasons. Indian peninsula is almost the same size of Arabian peninsula, but due to Monsoon water, it is able to support about 5000% more population.
