Objective: Identify and label countries, cities, physical features, and bodies of water in East Asia. Investigate the historical and cultural influence of the Silk Road.
Task: Welcome to Quarter 2! When you arrive to class, please pick up "China or US?" from the front cart. Make an educated guess to answer each question.

When you've finished the map, you'll begin the Silk Road directed research activity.
