Illinois Relief Map Project

For this project, students will be creating a salt dough relief map of Illinois which includes the features that have been studied during this unit.

This packet includes the project description, materials needed and a letter home requesting the flour and salt required to make the dough.  The teacher will need to provide the rest of the materials listed.

There is also a grading rubric for this project.  It is meant to be used as a project-based summative assessment for the Geography Unit.
