For Teachers and Homeschool Families
Standards: The regions and physical features maps cover the features named in Georgia’s social studies standards: the five geographic regions for second grade (SS2G1), and for eighth grade Georgia Studies (SS8G1) the regions plus the Fall Line, Okefenokee Swamp, Appalachian Mountains, Chattahoochee and Savannah rivers and barrier islands. Check your district’s current standards document for exact wording.
Answer keys: Each blank map has a labeled partner on this page. The regions map is the key for the regions blank map, the physical features map is the key for the features worksheet, and the county map is the key for the blank county map.
Using the maps: Print, copy and share them with students freely for classroom and home use, and project them on a smartboard. We ask only that you link to this page (https://www.n-georgia.com/georgia-studies-maps.html) instead of re-hosting the files, so your students always get the current version.
Field trips: Many of the places on these maps make great trips. See Black Rock Mountain for the Blue Ridge, Cloudland Canyon for the Appalachian Plateau, Okefenokee State Park in the Okefenokee Swamp, and our Georgia lighthouses guide for the barrier islands.
Common Questions
What are the five regions of Georgia?
Georgia's five geographic regions are the Blue Ridge in the northeast mountains, the Valley and Ridge (also called Ridge and Valley) in the northwest, the Appalachian Plateau in the far northwest corner, the Piedmont across the middle of the state, and the Coastal Plain, which covers the southern half of Georgia below the Fall Line.
What is the Fall Line in Georgia?
The Fall Line is the boundary between the Piedmont and the Coastal Plain, where the hard rock of the Piedmont meets the softer sediments of the Coastal Plain and rivers drop in waterfalls and rapids. Columbus, Macon and Augusta grew up along it, where boats could travel no farther upstream and the falling water could power mills.
What are Georgia's major physical features?
Georgia's major physical features include the Appalachian Mountains and Brasstown Bald, the state's highest point at 4,784 feet, the Fall Line, the Okefenokee Swamp, the barrier islands along the coast, and major rivers such as the Chattahoochee, Flint, Savannah and Altamaha.
Can teachers print and share these maps?
Yes. The maps are free to print, copy and share with students for classroom and home use, and to project in class. We ask that you link to the page rather than re-hosting the files, so students always get the current version.
