Description
This lesson explores the geography of North Africa & Southwest Asia, aka the Middle East. The activities are engaging for students & the guided, 5-E format is easy for you to use! First, challenge your class to solve the Sphinx’s riddle, then test their prior knowledge of the region with a “Name It” map activity. Next, students compete in an “Amazing Race” while exploring the political and physical geography of the Middle East. Discuss key locations, landforms, and bodies of water. Fill-in notes accompany the lesson. Finally, end the cycle of bored students copying & labeling maps from a book or screen! A unique “Where is it? Map Challenge” encourages students to think critically and use absolute and relative location clues to create a map and answer questions. Print & interactive, digital versions of the materials are included. Made for traditional in-class learning or digital 1:1 classrooms. Everything you need is included!
