Seventh
Grade Social Studies
World Map Final Project
The following information will be labeled on the World Map. All
maps are to be drawn free hand. (Tracing the map will be considered cheating
and traced maps will receive no credit.) All maps must have color. The color
must show the boarders between countries. Maps without first and last names
on the top, front, right hand corner of the map will receive no credit. You
may abbreviate some countries names' where there is little room for labeling.
If you use abbreviations you must have a key that shows what those abbreviations
mean.
