Map Instructions!
As promised... here are the instructions for completing the map... beginning with the coloring and timeline portions (AFTER YOU'VE FINISHED DRAWING)
1. Choose 6 different colors (colored pencils)
2. Use your 6 colors to Color-in the states according to HOW and WHEN they were acquired. Use the maps on pages 81, 139, 208, 228, & 329 of your textbook to discover which states were acquired when...
a. 1 color represents the original 13 states,
b. 1 to represent the land America originally owned but that were still “territories” (not states) after the Revolution. (Northwest Territory, Kentucky Territory [Kentucky & Tennessee] and the Mississippi Territory [Mississippi & Alabama])
c. 1 to represent the land acquired in the Louisiana Purchase,
d. 1 to represent the land given to us by Spain (in the Adams-Onis Treaty),
e. 1 to represent all of the land we got from Mexico
f. and 1 to represent the Oregon Territory
TIMELINE ~
3. Draw your own timeline: IN THE SPACE ABOVE THE MAP
a. Combine the 2 Timelines you completed earlier to make 1 timeline including all 7 Presidents and all 7 events listed on page 3.
b. Match the colors on your timeline with the colors on your map!! …(for example: Write “ End of American Revolution” in the same color as you filled in the 13 original states… write “Land Ordinance of 1785” & “Northwest Ordinance” in the same color as the Northwest Territory)
