Emphasize neatness from the beginning! Students should use a red color pencil for the highlight circles. For labeling the places and the oceans, it is best to use a #2 pencil or erasable ink pens, however, because color pencils are not very good for small lettering. Remind students to add color to the map key. A blue color pencil is needed to mark the
line of the Panama
Canal Zone in the inset map. Use light blue to
color the water in the inset map. It is best not to color the
oceans on the world map. The Panama Canal Zone was returned to the
government
of Panama in 1999, as a result of a treaty signed by President Jimmy
Carter in 1977. |
