With Blackline Maps of American History, you, as the teacher, can...

• Print them all or just the ones you need today.
• Print multiple copies for your family's use.
• Never worry about lesson plans for your historical outline maps. We've included them for you!
• Have different aged students working at their own ability. No more trying to stretch the lesson up or down.

With Blackline Maps of American History, your students can...

• See the landscape (i.e. the political boundaries, major cities, etc.) from the historical time period - instead of what the region is like today.
• Label places of historical significance on their outline maps.
• Color in regions, trace travel routes, draw scales and directional symbols, etc.
• Maps don't have to be boring... Students should feel free to experiment with colored markers, pencils, paint and even glitter (this is optional, of course!)
• Finished maps can be posted to the bulletin board or refrigerator or placed in a history notebook.

 Written with grades 1-8 in mind, however I have used them through high school!
