Vermont
The only New England state without an Atlantic coastline, and the nation's leading producer of maple syrup by a wide margin.
Geography Standards
Vermont Agency of Education — Vermont Framework for K-8 Social Studies (C3 Framework) publishes the official standards; JigsawGeo's map games and printable materials line up well with the geography skills below. See the official standards for exact current wording and numbering.
- Grade 1: Creating simple maps of familiar places and using map keys, symbols, and positional words like near, far, and above to describe locations.
- Grade 2: Locating the continents and oceans of the Americas on maps and globes, and identifying the regions of the United States along with their major physical features.
In the Classroom
- Play the United States map in JigsawGeo as a warm-up or center activity — Explorer level asks students to place each state by name, Navigator by capital.
