Isolation Maps – Oceans

Description

Where most geography materials focus on land, the Isolation Maps for Oceans turn the child’s attention to the five oceans themselves, each shown alone against a blank background so its shape, extent, and position relative to the continents can be studied without distraction.

This shift in focus, from land to water, introduces a dimension of physical geography most materials only imply, building a more complete mental map of the planet’s surface. The work suits the child who already has a solid grasp of continental geography and is ready to extend that knowledge to the water that covers most of the earth.

Printed on sturdy, laminated stock, the set is designed for the repeated, focused study typical of elementary-level geography work.
