Using the Portal! Highlight: Maps 101

I know that as a teacher I never really had the time to explore the portal. I am hoping on a regular basis to highlight one feature of the SBCEO portal. To access the portal at school go to sbceoportal.org and click on OnCampus Login. It is a really great resource.

This month I am going to highlight a recently added feature MAPS 101.  Below is a list of it’s capabilities:

-Find maps from a specific time period in history/current

-Geography games (Great for practicing those states!) and Interactive Maps

-Create maps with comments and feedback to insert in a presentation

-Save a map to insert in a presentation

-Printing black outline maps and speciality maps (ie. Earth Science Maps)
