About

This quiz covers Texas geography with a specific focus on the four major geographic regions of the state: Coastal Plains, North Central Plains, Great Plains, and Mountains and Basins. Designed for 7th grade social studies students, the assessment requires knowledge of regional characteristics including major cities, natural resources, physical features, economic activities, climate patterns, and agricultural products. Students must demonstrate their understanding of how geography influences human settlement patterns and economic development by correctly matching specific features to their corresponding regions. The questions demand both factual recall and analytical thinking as students connect physical geography to human geography concepts such as population distribution, resource availability, and regional economies. Created by Stefany Mogas, a History teacher in the US who teaches grade 7. This comprehensive assessment serves multiple instructional purposes in the middle school classroom, functioning effectively as a review activity before unit tests, homework reinforcement, or formative assessment to gauge student mastery of Texas regional geography. Teachers can use this quiz to identify areas where students need additional support in understanding the relationship between physical geography and human activities. The content directly supports TEKS 7.9A (locate the geographic regions of Texas and describe their physical characteristics), 7.9B (locate and compare the geographic regions of Texas with regard to physical characteristics and economic activities), and 7.10A (identify ways in which Texans have adapted to and modified the environment). This assessment tool provides valuable data for instructional planning while reinforcing essential geographic literacy skills that form the foundation for understanding Texas history and culture.
