Engaging classroom games on your world map rug

1. Geography Scavenger Hunt: Provide students with a list of countries, cities, or geographic features, and have them race to locate them on the map rug. This helps reinforce map reading skills and geography knowledge.
2. Capital City Challenge: Call out a country's name, and have students quickly identify and stand on the corresponding capital city on the map rug. This tests their knowledge of world capitals.
3. Continent Hopping: Designate different areas of the rug as continents. Call out instructions like "Jump to Asia!" or "Hop to South America!" and have students move around the rug accordingly.
4. Distance Estimation: Give students a set of two locations on the map and have them estimate the distance between them. They can then physically measure the distance by walking or using a ruler on the rug.
5. Coordinate Practice: Create a grid system on the rug and have students practice identifying locations using coordinates, similar to a game of Battleship.
6. Story Mapping: Provide students with a short story or travel narrative, then have them trace the journey on the map rug, discussing the different locations and geographic features encountered.
