Paint Sample Continents:
In 6th grade Social Studies we study Cartography. Cartography is the study of map making to identify where regions are located and what makes one region different from another. In this project the students worked in groups to create maps of the continents of the world. They used different paint samples to represent the diversity within the continents of the world.
This project coincides with Social Studies Geography Common Core Standard: 6.G.2.2. which is creating maps to study the differences & diversity of the world
