IN THE WORLD DID THEY COME FROM?
Mapping Assignment
Aim:
- To
identify where in the world these different cultural groups in Wellington came from – some are
countries and some are cultural/religious groups.

be able to find a suitable map to use which is not too large or too small.
To Do:
- Divide
the list into continents – this site may help
http://geography.about.com/library/maps/blrindex.htm
- Name
the countries on a blank map of the world. Remember to put a title and clear labelling. Do not google each country –
use an atlas – remember your info literacy skills!! You may wish to team up with someone else to find the countries but each
person must have a completed map!
