Dry-Erase Globes Test Geography Knowledge

Dry-erase globes are excellent tools for teaching geography to children, and they can make for an unusual piece in your globe collection.

As you probably guessed, dry-erase globes come unlabeled, are coated with the same material found on dry-erase boards (white boards), and will accept temporary markings from dry-erase markers. Markings can be cleared with regular dry erasers.

Dry-erase globes come in two main types: 1) black and white, 2) blue and green. The black and white dry-erase globes feature only outlines of borders and other major geographical features. A black and white dry-erase globe would be good for manual coloring and labeling. A blue and green dry-erase globe would be good for manual labeling only. Generally, dry-erase globes come with the necessary markers.

Not only would a dry-erase globe be an excellent tool for preparing for a geography exam, it could be a useful tool in testing and refreshing your general knowledge of the world.
