Description

Several Social Studies' Pacing Guides call for review or teaching of the Five Themes of Geography. I found that even though my students had seen this information in the past, they were still confused about some of the differences. This product gives students an informational passage (800-900 Lexile Level) on the history of the themes and a brief description of each. A graphic organizer is provided for students to complete while reading the passage. This can be done as whole group instruction, partners, or individually. After finishing this part, students complete comprehension questions to name the theme described, pictured, and multiple choice questions. There are 18 questions total. Lastly, students complete an application activity, where they choose a location of their choice and describe each theme. This will take some research on their part, but my students always enjoy it and it allows them some choice. I have provided an example for this that I show my students to help them understand the directions better. This is a great activity for the beginning of the year and will help you get a quick glimpse of your students' abilities.

Includes:

*Informational Page (800-900 Lexile)

*Graphic Organizer (to be completed while reading)

*18 questions- theme identification and multiple choice

*Application Activity for students

*Keys Included

*Color and B/W Versions are provided
