This week we learned how to make salt maps of the Texas Regions. Mrs. Nelson gave a bag of salt and flour. Then we put in 110 mL of water in each bag. We mixed it up until it made a dough. Next, we molded it into the shape of Texas. Finally, we added lines to separate the four regions of Texas. The four regions of Texas are Coastal Region, The Great Plains Region, Mountain and Basin Region, and Central Plains Region. We were surprised to find out we are in the Coastal Region. This is surprising because we are not near the coast. We will finish them next week when we color the regions to match our map key.
