http://www.pibmug.com/files/map_test.swf I flunked, but then I had two girls who wanted out of the bath and a cat that kept jumping on my lap and trying to get to my keyboard. I got a 28 before I timed out. I don't see any third-graders completing this thing in the time they've alotted. Good luck to you........
I passed it within the time limit, but if they didn't let you try again I probably would've only gotten around 35 or so. Those New northeast states kick my ass outside of NY, PA, and MA.
a. why do they not color in all of michigan? b. no alaska? c. no hawaii? i hope that isnt what our 3rd graders are learning... BTW, i got all 48 right with time to spare.
I would like to add that this is an awesome learning tool. I wish I had this back when I was in third grade. After only a third try, I can now knock them all out with ease.
Did it just fine, within the time limit, no penalties. Come on guys, I can understand world maps, or difficult continents like Africa, but the lower 48? There's no way this should be hard.
Man in 7th grade I wouldve absolutely owned a globe test and its capitals. I think at one time I knew every capital in Africa as well as obscure crap like Fiji and Micronesia. Effing Geography Bee, I was so close to going to nationals... [/end devastating childhood memories ]
freaking easy. i did it three times because i clicked in the ocean or the not close. i nailed 48 of 48.
I have a third grader who could probably place 3 or 4 at most. This isn't what they are teaching in the third grade, and I'm glad. Memorizing places on a map isn't what they need to spend their time on at this level.
I managed to get them all in the time allotted on the first time through, but it was luck that I got New Hampshire and Vermont correct since I often have trouble remembering which is which (even though I used to live in New England). I don't know that I could've passed in the third grade, though I recall in the fourth grade having to learn all the state capitals. I assume we learned all the states before that.
I got them all, without a problem. I'd have a much harder time remembering the capitols. They should have one for countries. I'd do very well with those. I've always loved geography. (doesn't hurt traveling a lot, either!)
I passed! Though Kentucky, Oklohoma, and most of the Mid west states were tough. I always though Kentucky and Tim Buck Too were related somehow? I mean who the hell lives in Kentucky?
