For this paper you can ONLY use your class atlas. All information for this paper is based exclusively on information from the class atlas. (However, you are very LIMITED in how much information you can use from pages 34-65) This is not based on previous information you know about the country or information you have learned from other courses or sources. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate your competency of reading charts and graphs and maps located in your class atlas.
Be sure to include a self-made map that you have made of your country.
Furthermore, you must provide
In-text citations of the page numbers AND
a “Works Cited” page
Finally, it is imperative that you do NOT use direct quotes or heavily ‘borrowed’ text from the atlas. You must interpret the information that is in the atlas. You must limit you use of the information from the section in the atlas entitled Gazetteer of Nations (pages 34-65), and instead focus on the graphs, charts, and maps
The purpose of this paper is demonstrate your ability to read maps, charts and graphs. In order to demonstrate this you will be using ONLY our class atlas. Additionally, if you base your paper on information found on pages 34-65 of the atlas then you are only demonstrating your ability to read written text. Do NOT focus on the information found on pages 34-65 of the atlas but rather look through the maps, charts and graphs at the beginning of the atlas and then turn to the maps for the region of the world in which your country is located and review those. Be descriiptive in explaining what you see, explain where in your country you see specific climates, or where the mountain range is located or where within your country the population is primarily concentrated, etc. And my last word of advice is to AVOID the use of words like left right, up or down. In describing locations, those terms do not make sense. Instead, use the terms that do make sense in describing location, terms like north, south, east and west!!
Your Paper Must be submitted as either a Word file or as a PDF
Be sure to also include
Your self-made map!! Your map must include a variety of information on it. For example, all maps should include the capital city as well as all other major cities in your country. Additionally, any and all major landforms or other noteworthy places should be included. You may add additional information to your map including, but not limited to,
Your map must be designed by you and display effort. A quick sketch on a piece of lined notebook paper will not be acceptable for points. Do not use lined notebook paper for your map.
where the different climates of your country are located
where the major tourist destinations are located
places of historical significance

Use of Information only from the Atlas: Required: Paper will fail if you do not follow this.
