Desk Atlas and Outline Maps of the United States Desk Atlas and Outline Maps of the United States Desk Atlas and Outline Maps of the United States Desk Atlas and Outline Maps of the United States Desk Atlas and Outline Maps of the United States Procedure Begin lesson by having students divided the United States into (4) sections and listing each state in that particular section. Place the areas on the map and color each section a different color. Begin with the Northeast and list each of the four regions in order and have the students draw a cause and effect chart with the headings of Physica Characteristics, Resources, Industrial and Megalopolis. Next, discuss how climate and vegetation have affected each region's economic development. Follow this with discussions on Rainfall, Growing Seasons, Soil and Temperature and how each affects the variations of crops and raising of livestock.
