Mapping the World by Heart


Second semester 2009-2010 the 6th graders embarked on a huge project called Mapping the World by Heart. Each student complete nine regional maps. After the regional maps were completed students then drew the world map using the information from their regional maps. The original year-long curriculum was compacted into 16 weeks. The maps turned out great, you can see all of them here!!

Yes, this is a great project. I was browsing the Broken Arrow website, and I saw this project. Thanks for sharing...I will pass it on.

BTW, I loved the school supply posting also. By the time I was in junior high, not middle school then, we had official bookcovers with our school mascot on them. We had to purchase them, so I mainly stuck with the brown paper. We did decorate them.
