Creating a map of Landmarks On your map, I want you first to label each state with the abbreviation. Like MI for Michigan. Type in “United States State Abbreviations” into google. Lastly, find and label the different United States Landmarks.

American Landmark Story Use your creative juices to create a story about a trip to different American landmarks. Choose one of the landmarks, and write a story taking place at one of these landmarks. Make sure to use details from your web quest in your story.

Canadian Landmarks Pick one or two of the following Canadian landmarks. Canadian Shield, Toronto City, Niagara Falls, Canadian Rocky Mountains or Quebec City. Research and find 15 different facts about the landmark you researched. Label your paper 1-15 on a piece of line paper. Skip lines. Write your 15 different facts.

Canadian Landmarks Report Your job is to turn your 15 facts into a report about what you researched. The purpose of this writing is to teach someone about the place you researched. It must be in COMPLETE SENTENCES and IN YOUR OWN WORDS.
