Cram World Physical Political Roller Map

Even advanced students will marvel at our natural world once they get a chance to study the Cram World Physical Political Roller Map. This large, colorful map depicts a variety of different land elevations and water depths around the globe. With one quick glance students will be able to identify the mountain ranges that are the results of continental drift. This incredibly accurate map utilizes the Winkel Map Projection, which provides the best balance of size, shape, and direction. The upper inset political map features Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, and western Asia, the global area often considered the birthplace of human culture. The two poles are also shown so your students can get a full picture of our planet. At the base of the map is an index that shows absolute and relative locations of more than 175 major geographical features around the globe. The square map is printed on durable, non-tear material that you can mark on while teaching to point out key features. A heavy-duty spring roller protects the map while not in use and smoothly expands when needed; the backboard keeps the map flat so everyone can see.
