North America Pin Map

The kids are loving the new North America Pin Map that I put together over the weekend. I thought it would take longer than it did to tape the Country Name Labels to the pins, but really it took less than thirty minutes. I am going to get started on the flags that they can stick into the map as well tonight. The maps I got from Montessori Print Shop came along with some blackline masters. The labels I purchased from the The Learning Ark came with the flags all ready to cut, I am really happy with both purchases.

                                          The Control Map



The Map I adhered to the corkboard with the sticky things that came with the set of corkboards for hanging the cork onto the wall.

                           Ken in action working with it.
