Label the Himalayas, Ganges and Deccan Plateau on a map and draw the summer monsoon winds. The directions on the page read: Read the text about the land and the monsoon. Then answer questions 1 to 3. An answer key is included.
Can I use this world regions and landmarks worksheet for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for 7th grade World Geography and Regions, and it works the same at home or at school. At home, a student can work through it alone and then go over it with you, which shows quickly what is solid and what needs another look. In class it works as independent practice, homework or a warm-up, and you can print one copy or a full set.
What were the 2007 New Seven Wonders?
⌄
The table lists Chichen Itza, Christ the Redeemer, the Colosseum, the Great Wall, Machu Picchu, Petra and the Taj Mahal. It also says the poll was not a scientific survey and that UNESCO had no link to it.
What causes the monsoon in South Asia?
⌄
The sheet describes a summer monsoon and has students draw arrows on a map to show where the winds blow. It also covers the Himalayas, the Ganges and the Deccan Plateau.
How do students use latitude and longitude?
⌄
They put a dot on the grid at each site's location, such as 21 degrees N, 89 degrees W for Chichen Itza, and write its letter beside the dot.
