Just Lovely!
Cheryl Davis , the map in the Worlds Revealed blog is gorgeous! I was thinking that for a geography lesson, a teacher could show photographs of Puerto Rico today (or historically), then hand out the map. Students would use their analytical skills to suggest what they think the different colors and patterns might indicate and what they think might have changed in the decades since the map was created. At the end of the activity, the teacher could project the legend for the great reveal.
