Tips for completing the map, page 175

   Students should work from the full size, completed map page shown with the link from this section's main index page.  Emphasize neatness from the beginning!

   It's a good idea to have students color the Western Front first, using a red color pencil.  A dotted line in France shows the location.  Also point out the Suez Canal.  Students should color it with a blue pencil.  A dotted line in Egypt shows the location.

   Remind students to shade the land areas very lightly, so the labels and borders will not be obscured.  Note that the map does not show the areas conquered, but only who was on which side.

   The Atlantic Ocean and the seas can be done last in light blue.  Use a # 2 pencil or an erasable ink pen for labeling them, since color pencils don't do small lettering very well.
