US Grade 3 - 6
Geography is one of my greatest passions! I can't wait to share with your child all the different people and places in our world. Each student will receive a "passport" when they join the class. As we travel to and learn about different countries, students can fill up their passports with "stamps." As we arrive to each new continent, students will be given a map of the continent and an additional handout with memorable features of the countries we visit. **Topics are subject to change depending on student(s) abilities and interests** Week of August 14 - Bodies of Water Week of August 21 - Europe Week of August 28 - Mountains **NO CLASS week of SEPTEMBER 4 Week of September 11 - Africa Week of September 18 - Deserts Week of September 28 - Central America Week of October 2 - South America Week of October 9 - Rainforests Location fun facts may include native animals, climate, capitals, waterways, cultures and landmarks. Students will learn through show me/tell me games, find it games, pictures, and occasional short videos. Students will be given a passport and maps for games during class. Maps and other handouts/coloring sheets should be printed off prior to class so they can be used during class.
Learning Goals
Students will learn the 7 continents, 5 oceans, many countries and their capitals around the world!
Other Details
Supply List
Students will need to print off (prior to class): -passports -maps -handouts/coloring sheets Students will also need "markers" for their maps. These can be: -dried beans -balls made from modeling clay -sequins -or whatever you have around the house **I also like to use chocolate chips (for mountain ranges) and candy fish or fish crackers (for waterways and oceans). All of these are completely optional, however it does make the games more fun for the kids. You may also want to consider laminating maps (or using a sheet protector) so your child can practice or play the games multiple times. An alterative option is to purchase shop ticket holders from the Dollar Tree to put the maps in. When choosing this option, students can use dry erase markers to identify/outline locations on the maps. These options allow students to use the maps multiple times.

Teacher expertise and credentials
When I was a child, our family traveled all over the United States and Europe. From there, my curiosity grew and I enjoyed learning about different lands and people across the world. I have a BA in History and have experience teaching students (ages 4-18) history and geography. Reviews
