Your students will read a brief introduction to the United States (location, capital, flag, language, 13 original colonies), write ‘Washington D.C.’ next to the star on the map to show the location of the capital, color the small map, and use the map and compass to answer 10 questions on page 2.

Please note: This map includes the United States and surrounding, including Canada, Mexico, Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Arctic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, Cuba, Haiti, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico.
