Lakes of USA Map

The Lakes of the USA Map allows students to locate and label 14 major lakes across the United States. This engaging social studies resource first presents a map with the lakes numbered. Students then match the lake numbers to a second page that lists the lake names. They write the corresponding name on the numbered lines of the blank map. Through this activity, learners reinforce geography knowledge and spatial relationships of important US lakes. Use the reproducible PDF as individual seatwork, a small group activity, or a whole class assessment. The Lake Map suits various instructional approaches for 3rd-5th grade public or home school. Students gain confidence navigating US geography while educators check comprehension levels. By completing the map, students cement knowledge about lake locations for long-term retention.
