MATERIALS NEEDED
-One full sheet of white poster board
- One set of colored pencils
- One ultra-fine point felt-tip black pen
- One fine-point felt-tip black pen
- One fine-point felt-tip blue pen
STEPS
1. Use your fine-point felt-tip black pen to draw an outline of the entire continent and all islands from the Ural Mountains in the east to Iceland in the west. Be sure to include outlines of those
portions of Africa and Asia that should appear on your map. Use the enclosed map as a
guideline when drawing your boundaries.
2. Use the ultra fine-point felt-tip black pen to draw in the borders of all of Europe's nation-states
and territories (see the attached list). Be sure to label the four "countries" which make up the
United Kingdom, but color the UK as one.
3. Use the fine-point felt-tip blue pen to NEATLY write the names of every European nationstate listed on page 2.
4. Use the ultra fine-point felt-tip black pen to NEATLY write the names of all the nation state
capitals. Use a * to identify the location of each capital - be careful where you place them!
Hint: Most capitals have been identified on the teacher supplied map with an *.
5. Use the colored-pencils (no markers or crayons!) to NEATLY color each European nationstate. Use only green, orange, purple, red, or yellow (no blue). Be sure not to have two
countries of the same color next to one another.
a. Be sure to color the United Kingdom as a single nation-state.
b. Be sure to color all islands the same color as their "mother country."
6. Use the ultra fine-point felt-tip black pen to NEATLY write the names of all bodies of water
from the attached list.
7. Use the blue colored-pencil to NEATLY color in all bodies of water.
8. Use the brown colored-pencil to NEATLY color in the lands of Africa and Asia which appear
on your map.
NOTE: Acceptable maps posters must be NEAT, ACCURATE, and COMPLETE. Due date is
