This material teaches the child about the continents.

Presentation

  1. Take the puzzle map and the control map to a mat (two mats may be needed depending on the size).
    Put the puzzle map on the left and the control mat on the right.
  2. Remove the pieces one at a time from the puzzle and place them on the corresponding spot on the control mat.
  3. After all of the pieces have been removed, carefully replace them back in the puzzle.

Points of Interest

Control of Error

Variations and Extensions

  • A three period lesson could be done with the continents to learn their names.
  • Continent puzzle pieces could be put in a mystery bag for the child to try to identify by touch.

Map Making

  • Trace the control map and color in with colored pencils, paint, oil pastels, or colored chalk.
  • Trace around each continent on the appropriately colored construction paper. Pin-punch or cut out the continents. Then glue onto blue circles that have been painted on paper or cut out of blue paper and glued down.
  • Maps may be labeled with pre-printed labels, labels written out by then child, or names of continents could be written directly on the map.
