From Adam to Us Map Book

Many lessons in From Adam to Us have a corresponding map in this book. At the end of each lesson with map assignments, you will be instructed to find a certain map in this book and complete the assignments for that lesson.

You should use colored pencils to complete each assignment. Regular crayons will be too thick. During the course, you will need each of these colors:

red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, black, gray, and brownWe highly recommend a quality colored pencil brand like Prismacolor®.

When you are coloring in a shape, color neatly and completely; solidly but not too hard. When you circle one or more words, make your circles (or ovals) neat and complete. When you are instructed to trace along a line, trace just beside the line so that the color will be visible. Do your best and neatest work so that you will be pleased with your collection of maps!
