About this resource
This quiz focuses on the geography of Spanish-speaking countries across Latin America, the Caribbean, and Africa, targeting students at the middle school level, specifically grades 6-8. The questions assess students' knowledge of political geography and their ability to identify Spanish-speaking nations within different regional contexts. Students need a solid foundation in world geography, including understanding of continental boundaries, regional groupings, and the historical spread of Spanish colonization. The quiz requires students to distinguish between Spanish-speaking countries and their non-Spanish-speaking neighbors, demonstrating knowledge of linguistic geography and political boundaries. Students must recognize that Spanish is the official language in 21 countries worldwide, spanning from Argentina in South America to Equatorial Guinea in Africa, and understand the geopolitical distribution of these nations across multiple continents and island territories. Created by Madelyn Mann, a Geography teacher in the United States who teaches grade 6 through University level. This quiz serves as an excellent tool for formative assessment, helping teachers gauge student understanding of global Spanish-speaking regions before moving into more complex cultural or economic geography units. The format works particularly well as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge or as homework practice to reinforce classroom learning about Latin American and global geography. Teachers can use this assessment to identify knowledge gaps in students' understanding of political geography and to differentiate instruction based on regional familiarity. The quiz aligns with geography standards NCSS.D2.Geo.1.6-8, which focuses on developing questions about geographic distributions and patterns, and NCSS.D2.Geo.6.6-8, which emphasizes explaining how cultural and environmental characteristics vary among regions of the world.
