Using maps helps students comprehend the complete historical narrative. The Unit One Mapping Activity is a fun way to introduce students to maps so they get comfortable using them throughout the course.
Although I don't teach AP World History, I do love maps! One of my favorite maps to analyze is Charles Minard's map depicting Napoleon's retreat from Moscow in 1812. Part map, part statistical graph, this graphic is sure to sharpen students' graphicacy skills! Here are some of my favorite resources for using Minard's map. How do you use this graphic/map with your students?
