I have always wanted to paint a world map on the blacktop at our school. Our students study many places in the world for science, current events and geography, so why not see where they are in relationship to the USA? Many years ago when I was an assistant principal, we found a price of $600 just for a map of the US, but it was too pricey at the time. Now National Geographic has a FREE kit you can download from their site. In addition to the map toolkit, there is a companion CD with lesson plans, templates and many other ideas for teachers. Look for the "Mapping the Americas" title on their page.
