Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 7
Beginner Level
Each week, we will learn the name of one of the seven continents and where they are located. The eighth week will be focused on the five oceans and t heir relationship to the continents. The last class will be a game-based class to practice what has been learned. In the first half of each class, students will learn  about the highlighted continent,  through interactive games and group discussions. Students will share what they already know and that knowledge will be expanded through games and teacher input.  Students will identify each continent and ocean on a map.  The second section of the class will be a jeopardy  or other type of where students can apply the knowledge they have gained, using notes they have been encouraged to take during class. 
Note-taking is encouraged. Questions and answers are employed to encourage student participation in the lecture portion of the class. During the Jeopardy game, students will take turns choosing and answering the category questions. Scores will be tallied by the teacher, and the student with the most points at the end of the game will be announced.  All students will be congratulated for their efforts.
