Description

Nystrom Early Learning United States and World Map Combo Classroom Pack comes with a United States map, world map, and 16th inch raised-relief globe (all markable). The world map and the globe emphasize continents by making each one a different color; country boundaries are shown as red lines, with each country labeled by name. To keep the presentation simple, longitude and latitude are omitted (except the Equator) are shown. The U.S. map emphasizes states by color, with each state labeled; capitals and a few of the most major cities are shown. U.S. insets include a locator map, Alaska, and Hawaii; five world-map insets rotate globe views to put different continents front and center. Both maps have shaded relief and legends that explicitly explain how map symbols and conventions work. The maps measure 65 W x 54 H and come mounted on one heavy-duty metal spring-roller with a backboard designed for hanging from a map rack or a one-inch map rail (not included). Grades K to 1.
