Maps and Geography

Chapter 1: Colorado Maps & Land

While looking through these document based questions I wanted to go back and add a bit more rigor to chapter one. The original chapter one questions are very map skills oriented, which is great, but I wanted to add more critical thinking. I encourage you to still use both DBQ sets, understand that they just cover different skills.

Source 1

Source 2

Source 3

Source 4

Source 5

Question Set:

1. Using Source 1: Where are we located in the world? Why is it important that we understand our location in the world?


2. Using Source 2: What type of map is source two? What are things you see on the map to support your answer?

3. Using Sources 3 & 4: How does the geography of Colorado create the five regions? How are those five regions unique from each other?

4. Using Sources 3 & 5: How has Colorado’s geography affected where people have chosen to live?
