Item #MAP

Catalog Correction: In the 2008 Sonlight catalog, on pages 137 and 141, we mistakenly said that this item is a Required Resource in Sonlight Core programs from K-100. In fact, it is a Required Resource in Cores K-300.

Now in full color!

Your whole family can enjoy discovering "where things are." Hang this 23" x 34" Modified Robinson Projection map on a wall for easy reference, or fold flat (smaller than 12" x 12") and take it with you. With the world on one side, the U.S.A. on the other, this map shows you a lot of detail, including major political boundaries and rivers. Laminated surface lets you mark your map with grease pencils or water-based markers. A Required Resource in every Sonlight Core program from K—300. Includes a four-color set of fine-tip water-based markers!

As a final exam in Geography, I told my daughter to label a list of places on the Markable Map (which I think is one of the BEST tools I've ever seen!!). She was finishing the 50 states and she asked if we would use the map next year. I told her she would use it until she graduated from high school. She was so excited. We left all of her work on the map so she could show her Daddy when he got home. Who would have ever guessed that a big laminated map and a pack of erasable pens would be such a motivator?! THANK YOU, Sonlight!! You make the world really "come alive" for my child.

I like the new, foldable map. I owned it before it could fold and it was tough to store.

It is handy that it folds, but my daughter can't always figure out HOW to fold it. I like that we can erase it and start over each year. BUT: there are some quality issues. Some rivers are incomplete, and some lakes are missing. Having only one lake in western New York where there ought to be 10 or 12 Finger Lakes is really annoying! And those who know other parts of the country (and world) better might have their own examples, too.

The quality of the map is good, but we did not get to use it. We find using a regular map much easier.

We love this map and enjoy using it. No it does not include every lake and river, and probably should not be the only map you use. However, it is a wonderful learning tool as the kids enjoy labeling each place they study and making their own notes throughout the year. It's simplicity makes it less intimidating for younger students. We have used the old B&W version for Core K through Core 2 and have found it convenient, helpful, durable, and enjoyable. Would love to have this new color version, but how can I replace the old one when it still looks like new?

This is a great map, but we stopped using it regularly after Core 1, preferring our table map under vinyl. We'd LOVE a similar map of Canada, please!
