California for Educators

The following quiz is provided for you to check your ability to remember the location of the cities and counties you are responsible for knowing for the in-class map quiz. The format of the in-class quiz will be very similar to this one, but you will not be permitted to use an atlas or other such guide.

 

You should use study the list of places to know first, and then attempt this quiz.  You may of course have an atlas or map by your side to help you if you get stuck, but...it will help you little on the "real" quiz if you rely to heavily upon a map or atlas when you take this practice quiz.

Directions: Identify the features corresponding to the numbers, letters and symbols on the map provided via hyperlink below. Either the link or map icon to open a second browser window containing the map.  Remember that pressing Control and then Tab moves you between open application windows.
