Label key locations as a whole-class activity

They can label the blank map using a whiteboard marker or add sticky notes.

Create a progressive, comprehensive map of Asia

At the beginning of a unit of work on Asia, provide students with their own printed copy of the blank Asia map. During the course of your unit of work, have students add more and more detail to their maps. They could add features such as:

Tips for Scaffolding and Extention

In any classroom, there is a multitude of learning needs that must be catered for in every single lesson! We’re here to help with some tips and tricks that may help you differentiate the application of this teaching resource:

  • Scaffolding Tips — Some students may find the precise nature of mapping difficult… and that’s okay! Support them by allowing them to access an atlas or digital mapping tool while completing the activity. Completing mapping tasks in a small group can also make students feel more supported and confident in their learning.
  • Extension Tips — For those students who are confident in their geographical skills, why not fine-tune their mapping skills by having them add additional map features to their map? For example, students could apply a color-coding system for various locations or features, and then add these to a legend or key.
