Continents & Oceans of the World

Felt is a favorite homeschool item because it is cheap and easy way to recreate items on a budget. For example, Montessori world puzzles that range in price from $25 to $50 can be made for under $5 with felt.
That's exactly what we did here. It has served as a beautiful and nice alternative.



Use labels of the Continents and Oceans to reinforce vocabulary and spelling.
S Man insisted on cutting out many of the bigger islands, which he did all himself and placed on the map.



We also used ABCTeach's 3 part World map cards to help with the vocabulary. Download the folder to keep them in here.

  2. Walaikum AsSalaam. MashaAllah. I lost the website when I lost my harddrive, but I finally was able to find it. I really like this website because you manipulate the map in Windows Paint: http://d-maps.com/index.php?lang=en
    Others like to use this for the template: http://www.yourchildlearns.com/megamaps/print-world-maps.html
