Map: Regions of the United States

Children will learn about the eight regions of the United States in this hands-on mapping worksheet. Students will find a list of the eight regions—Northwest, West, Great Plains, Southwest, Southeast, Northeast, New England, and Midwest—along with the states they cover. They will then use a color key to shade each region on the map template, labeling the states as they do so. This resource, designed for a fourth- and fifth-grade geography curriculum, also lends well to a lesson on U.S. history and culture.
