Students create a master map that indicates where the polar, grassland, rainforest or forest regions are in Canada. They can indicate which parts represent the regions using illustrations or textually. They can use an overhead projector to make a large wall map of Canada. They should draw symbols that represent polar, grassland, desert, rainforest or forested regions.

Student groups are assigned a region (polar, grassland, desert, rainforest or forest). Each group uses electronic or non-electronic sources to find another country that has an example of that region, for example, the polar region of Norway, Russia or the African Savannah. They can begin research in the Atlas’ Learning Resources Section and select Other Online Atlases.
