Ottoman, Safavid, and Mughal Empires Map Activity (Print and Digital)

Description

This map activity is an easy to implement geography lesson to incorporate into your unit  that will help your students better understand how the territory controlled by the 3 empires.

This no-prep print and digital map set makes it easy for your students to create a map they can use while learning about the Ottoman, Safavid, and Mughal Empires. Students will follow a PowerPoint or Google Slides presentation step by step to label and color a map. Once students complete their map, they will use their map to answer eight follow-up questions.
