1 The American Pacific Territories Grades 9-12 Introduction Many of the Pacific islands are strategically located between the United States and Asia, and the United States has not hesitated to take advantage of this fact. This lesson introduces students to some of the islands that are governed by or that have close political connections with the United States. It asks them to consider the reasons why the United States has chosen to maintain these political ties. Time Frame: 1-2 class period Objectives and Standards Students will: Mark on a map the Pacific islands or island chains with close connections to the United States. Identify the economic and strategic features of these islands or island chains. Look at a map of the Pacific Theater in World War II and explain the strategic importance of the Pacific Islands to the United States during the war. List the reasons why they think the United States maintains political control over or close unions with these islands. National Social Studies Standards: 3: People, Places, and Environments: Social studies programs should include experiences that provide for the study of people, places, and environments. 6: Power, Authority, and Governance: Social studies programs should include experiences that provide for the study of how people create and change structures of power, authority, and governance. National Geography Standards: 1: How to use maps and other geographic representations, tools, and technologies to acquire, process, and report information from a spatial perspective. 3: How to analyze the spatial organization of people, places, and environments on Earth s surface. 13: How the forces of cooperation and conflict among people influence the division and control of Earth s surface. 17: How to apply geography to interpret the past. 18: How to apply geography to interpret the present and plan for the future.
