A Method for Sketching World Maps.

Rifas, Leonard

Journal of Geography, v95 n1 p17-21 Jan-Feb 1996

Presents a simple, yet effective method for drawing a world map that helps younger students remember the continents, oceans, and major seas. The only materials required are a ruler, paper, and a world map (a transparency would work best). Includes suggestions for related activities and ways to improve map skills. (MJP)
