Why not try out our special Geography Awareness Week quiz?
This week is Geography Awareness week and to coincide with the very engaging Picture News topic for this week, Mr Hornsey has decided to set a little quiz for children (and quiz minded parents) to have a go at.
This week's Picture News was about technology and whether it can help us a bit too much. This was in response to Project Amplify, an experiment by Nike to make walking and running a little easier.
Nike's headquarters are located in Oregon so Mr Hornsey asked in assembly how many states are there altogether in the U.S.A.
So with this in mind, where are these sporting footwear manufacturers based? Basically, which region/state/city and country are they from?
(1) Adidas
(2) New Balance
(3) Umbro
(4) Reebok (be careful with this one!)
(5) Under Armour
(6) Skechers
(7) Heeleys
(8) Converse
(9) Vans
(10) Fila
(11) Puma
We learn about the geograpghy of U.S.A in year 4 so, of all the answers, how many manufacturers are based in US states and can you find them on a map?
