Estimated Time: 10 to 30 minutes (depending on how the teacher would like to enrich it)

Suggested/Possible Sequence:

1. Students brainstorm or make a list of countries they already know. Teacher verifies student lists.

2. Students then use textbooks or maps to identify the countries shaded on the map. Advanced classes may wish to include capitals (not included in answer key).

3. As a class, the teacher calls on students to verify the list. The teacher corrects any mistakes. The teacher may wish to include a cultural tidbit about each or some of the countries on the map as the class verifies it with her for accuracy.

***Note: List is not comprehensive, but includes most major countries and territories.
