Maps

stereotype-map

I found this map on Pinterest.

I could use the map in a discussion about STEREOTYPES:

What is the first thing YOU think of when you think of each of the 50 states?
Are stereotypes accurate? If not, are there some truth to them?
Is the stereotype for your state correct?
What do you want your state to be known for?
What happens when we stereotype a state, or a culture, or a person?
Hawaii and Alaska are not shown on this map. What would you describe them as?
What does this map show you about the person who created it?

I could also use this map in GEOGRAPHY for so many different things:

The purpose of different kinds of maps.
Cultural landscape.
Our worldview.
etc.

This map would be for a journal entry topic.
