Activities vary across the book and include word searches, word scrambles, matching exercises, fill-in-the-blank, and true/false questions.
The book opens with a welcome to the Americas, an overview of the four regions, and a color-the-Americas reference map. Each regional section begins with an introduction page covering geography, wildlife, and culture. End-of-book features include a country and territory capitals worksheet, a flags of the Americas challenge, a landmarks match-up, and a final review quiz. A complete answer key is included.
