For teachers
The three city-states – Berlin, Hamburg and Bremen – are numbered like the other states; Bremen is small enough to need a leader line.
On the label-it and capitals sheets, pupils write the names on the numbered lines; the labelled map doubles as a reference sheet. All sheets are crisp black line maps with light shading, so they photocopy and print cleanly in black and white.
