Assess your students’ knowledge of the major rivers and mountains in the United States with a set of exit tickets.
United States Rivers and Mountains – Activities and Assessments
The United States is a vast and beautiful continent, and young learners need to know more about the amazing land features found in the United States. With these exit tickets, students are tasked to:
- Identify and locate major mountain regions in the United States
- Identify and locate major rivers in the United States
- Identify and locate major bodies of water in and around the United States
In addition to individual student work time, use these exit tickets as a:
- Social Studies Activity

- Whole-class review (via smartboard)
For students who need extra support, use these tickets as an intervention activity or with a guided small group.
