For example, we labelled the transatlantic trade routes of the Triangle of Trade and the Middle Passage to show the movement of people, food, and finished products between Africa, the Americas, and Europe. \r\n We conducted a class activity called \"Our Interconnected World\" with a ball of yarn and a description of the connections between all parts of the world during the First World War and then identified those places on the map. \r\n Currently, I am teaching the Cold War and the impact of the spheres of influence between the United States and the Soviet Union on decolonization by circling areas of conflict in Asia, Africa, and Latin America on the world map.\r\n The maps not only provide a spatial context for the topics of history, they also include topography, climate zones, and ocean currents that enhance our discussions about the role of the environment in history, particularly in networks of trade and the migration of people. These maps have become a valuable resource for my lessons.
