South America Travel Plan
6th Grade Social Studies students used this template to create a travel plan for a country of choice in South America. (This could be done with any area). Students were asked to think like a travel guide to help others learn more about their country. Students identified three geographic locations and explained their importance as well as two points of interest. Using the media place holders, they added images for each item. On the fourth slide, students then created their travel plan showing the locations of the different geographic areas. Students could use animation, drawings, etc. to show their route. Also, a compass rose and legend was required for their map.
Aligns with Iowa Common Core Standard:
SS.6.16 -Utilize and construct geographic representations.

Continent Freeform
I love using Freeform to collect ideas, brainstorm, and collaborate. But I had an idea for having students use it as a great place to document their learning about all that they'd learned during middle school geography.

Nice template and wonderful geography and social studies activity! Thanks!
Hi Amanda, Thank you for posting. Have you ever thought of having your learners create a personalized guide in Maps as a complement for this lesson? https://support.apple.com/guide/ipad/organize-places-in-my-guides-ipad77efe3c9/ipados
Thanks so much for sharing this resource! I will definitely have to take a look and could be a great addition to this project or other ones that might be a good fit.
