teach province/territory names and capitals as well as providing notable
information on each province and territory; encourages vocabulary
development and basic geography skills.
Extension
Activities:
Review the map with the child. Locate the Atlantic, Pacific, and Arctic
Oceans, as well as the Labrador Sea and the aurora borealis.
Review the images
that appear on the map. Discuss and determine why you believe the images
were chosen and placed accordingly.
Remove the
provinces and/or territory pieces one at a time. Quiz the child on the
capital of each province/territory. (The ten provinces and three
territories are listed on the back of the puzzle with interesting facts
on each. The three territories are specifically marked.)
Ask the child to
assemble the map on a flat surface, not in the puzzle board; if
necessary, use the puzzle board as a guide. Review each province or
territory. Discuss the information printed on the back of the puzzle
board.
Ash the child how
many provinces and territories there are. Ask the child to name each and
identify it as a province or territory.
