Color the rivers and the Suez canal first, using a blue color pencil. Stay right on top of the dotted lines. The labeling of the rivers and other water bodies should be done next, using a #2 pencil or erasable ink pen, since color pencils are not very good for small lettering. Once all the labeling is in place, color the Mediterranean Sea and the other water bodies with a light blue pencil. (The water body on the upper right of the map is part of the Caspian Sea, but it does not need to be labeled.) Finally, color Israel and the West Bank very lightly with the colors shown, and finish the color key. |
