World Map Assignment
for CWP

You will be showing that you know the locations of the regions studied in this CWP course. You could choose to draw your own maps (chance for higher grade) or use blank ones provided by your teacher (just ask).

Use the A+ list as your guide to the regions you need to identify on your map(s). You should use color to designate the various areas/regions. You may also wish to make a key or legend for other information on the map. It is more important that the map be clear and neat than crammed with lots of extra information. You will either have to plan ahead or do a rough draft before your final copy is ready to turn in.

A resource you might find useful for getting an outline map as well as an online atlas and other fun map-related items:
