The students love the various activities!" — K-2 Teacher, Macedonia, OH "We are using the interactive map section to enhance our studies of the French and American Revolutions. The kids get a much better understanding of what is going on with these Visual Lessons. I am using your lesson plans which go right along with our text and study of these two events." — 9-12 Teacher, Brenham, TX "I use Maps101 with my computer projector, using my laptop computer. I download the maps in PDF file, and then I overlay the 'without text,' and the 'with-text' maps. I project the maps onto my whiteboard and write a location (political or physical) on the projected WITHOUT text map. I then overlay the WITH-text map, and show them if they got it right or wrong. It's a good way for the whole class to engage on map locations, and to practice their skills." — 6-8 Teacher, Snellville, GA Maps101 is a comprehensive geography-centric Social Studies resource.
