For Any Grade World History PowerPoint Presentations

(Please give the preview video a few minutes to process as it is 30 slides long)

This Interactive PowerPoint, which can be used across all grade levels, is a good way to gauge at the beginning of the year if your students know (1) The shape of each continent and ocean (2) The names of each of the continents and oceans (3) Where they are located. This presentation is a great way to review the continents and oceans as well.

How the PowerPoint works:

°A shape of a continent or ocean will be presented. The students are to decipher which continent or ocean it is and where it should be located.

°If a continent, once identified, the PP will identify how many countries are on each continent.

° The next slide will slide the continent or ocean in a map, piecing together the world map puzzle.

This is a quick and fun way to teach/review.

Guiding Questions

°What country or continent is this?

°What does it look like (regarding the shape)?

°How can you remember it?

°Where would it go on the map?

°What countries or how many countries make up the continent?
