Picture Maps of the Seven Continents

A grown-up reads each map aloud and points to the pictures. Show one continent a day during Geography Awareness Week, or hang all seven around a world map.

Seven pages after the cover, one map for each continent: North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia and Oceania, and Antarctica. Each map has 6 to 9 labeled pictures, such as the polar bear and the Statue of Liberty, Machu Picchu, the Eiffel Tower, Mount Kilimanjaro, the Great Wall, Uluru and a research station, plus one fact box, such as Asia is the largest continent.

Yes. We made it for Kindergarten to 2nd Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.

8 printable resources, all free to preview. There are 30 Geography Awareness Week resources in all, from Preschool to 5th Grade, gathered on our Geography Awareness Week activities page. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.

These are written for Kindergarten to 2nd Grade students, roughly ages 5-8. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.

Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Kindergarten to 2nd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
