We will explore the globe from the United States to Europe, through Asia to the South Pacific. This is unchartered territory and we learn of the different regions of the world with spectacular photos taken. W will explore 10-15 different bridges depending on class discussion.

Parent Comments:
This class is perfect. It is the first class we’ve taken at Outschool where I felt like the teacher was a real school teacher. Her lessons are just enough repetition to be good for memorization but not to become boring. My daughter looks forward to her class every day.
You are awesome. My son is learning so much from you. You devote tons of time.
I am so blessed to find this class!
By the way, you are an amazing teacher. This is our first Outschool class where I feel like a real teacher is teaching the class. I appreciate all your patience and steadfastness to such young children. My mom was a teacher of middle school for 35 years so I can spot the good ones. :)
Very good class. Encourages participation. Everyone gets a turn to speak often.
