How to Use Blank World Maps in Your Classroom or Homeschooling
You can do much more than simply print out these blank world maps and label them. They’re great learning tools if you’re a teacher or homeschooler. Here’s some ways to make the most of your blank world map printables.
Conduct a Geography Lesson
Obviously, one of the best ways to use a blank map of the world is for a geography lesson. Make sure you tailor this lesson to your student or students. A younger learner may need to learn just the names of the continents or a couple big countries, while an older learner can handle more nuance while studying. One tip is to print out two copies of your blank world map and fill in one with the correct answers so you have that easily on hand.
Incorporate Maps into Spelling Lessons
Blank world maps aren’t only good for learning geography. You can also use them for a spelling lesson. This will be a two-pronged approach to learning. As your students learn to spell a country, ocean, or other place name, they’ll also learn where that place is on the map.
Learn About Different Ecosystems
Branch out even more and use a blank world map to learn about the environment and different habitats and ecosystems. It can be helpful to see these places on a map rather than only learning about them from a book. For example, when you learn where the equator is in relation to something like the Sahara desert, the relationship between latitude and habitat makes a lot more sense. Seeing it on a map can help your kids get this concept easily.
Illuminate World History
While you’re learning, throw in a history lesson! Get creative with this one. If you’re learning about ancient Rome, for example, you can show how the borders of Rome became the borders of modern-day Italy. Again, having a strong visual like a blank world map can really help young learners internalize these lessons on a deeper level. A lot of visual learners will be helped by having an image like a map to hang onto while learning about history and other concepts.
