Product description
From the author
Study Namibia with twelve map layouts showing country outlines, settlement markers, labeled towns, rivers and neighboring countries. Four layouts are labeled and eight are unlabelled.
A 13-page PDF contains a title page and the twelve maps. Each map is also supplied as a PNG and JPEG, with a separate preview sheet explaining permitted incorporation into your own work. Choose a labeled reference or an unlabelled map for teacher-directed labeling, comparison or geography review.
In the classroom
Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Locate Windhoek and compare inland and coastal settlements
Identify the neighboring countries labeled on the regional maps: Angola, Zambia, Botswana and South Africa
Add selected labels to an unlabelled map
Teaching tips
The labelled and unlabelled versions of the same outline are supplied together, so one can be projected while students work on the other
The individual PNG and JPEG files carry the same twelve maps as the PDF, so a map can be placed on a slide or a task sheet without exporting a page first
Windhoek is set in capitals while the other fourteen towns are not, which gives students a visual cue for the capital before any labelling is done
Skills covered
Map reading using settlement dots, a capital star, borders and a coastline
Regional orientation using neighboring-country labels
Annotating an unlabelled outline with teacher-selected features
Good to know
