Middle East Geography

[etta694]

From a home schooling mom to everybody... oh, oh, I'm on the wrong forum - what the heck. You all will have fun with this too .

Here's a link to a map of the Middle East - can you put the names in the correct place?

This reminds me of what is happening over there.

Say yes to civil liberties, human rights, democracy and justice for all!

(and if you live over there... you have to do a map of the 50 states)

(and, yes, I'm a Canuk and no, I couldn't do the whole 50 either)

As a side.. Prayers for Japan.. there just are no words..

We sat around in a coffee bar in New Zealand one night when I was 19, trying to come up with the names of all 50, let alone where they were

I wish they would do all the countries... that would be fun.

Well, I sure had fun doing this Middle Eastern map..thanks, "Mom"!! I put in Armenia, since my grandparents came from there, and the big countries I knew, for sure first...then had to struggle a bit, but can proudly say I did it in about 4- 5 minutes...yippee for me!!

....as for the US, I probably would have a struggle with the states in the middle...LOL LOL

and yes, I am American....

thanks for the brain exercise, Etta!

Glad people enjoyed!

That was fun -- and also a bit mortifying

I found a countries one, you have to type in the names and it puts them on the map for you, so it's more remembering than knowing where they are: Open Original Shared Link

(I got 103 out of 195 - lots of room for improvement!)

And this one for US states: Open Original Shared Link

And yes, I spent waaaaaay too much time improving my speed on the states one. I am such a nerd for quizes. You created a monster, posting the Middle Eastern one :-)

I did the US one with 3 minutes to spare..whew!! Geesh, I almost forgot Kentucky and Utah ....thanks for posting this!!

ya know...last year, I probably would have blanked out on these things--hooray for getting brain power back!!

[etta694]

That's cool...new maps to try!

Our next brain exercise will be.... Assemble the Human Analogue -

(I couldn't find one online...)
