Continents Worksheet - Countries

Ten country names supply country names drawn from several world regions and asks students to write the continent for each. An atlas or comparable geographic resource is explicitly encouraged, turning the exercise into guided reference use rather than unsupported recall. The completed second page allows teachers to check all placements after the geographic search. Public copy describes the coverage without reproducing the country-to-continent pairings.
