1 hour per week. Each week, students will have some resources they can do if they choose, but they will have a weekly project they can do in relation to the countries we covered. There is one week that students will give a mini report on a country of their choice if they want. All work is optional, but I give fun food projects weekly for them to try.Assessment
I offer weekly assessments most weeks in the folder for your student to take on the topics we covered. Students who want to test their knowledge of the content can take these and submit to be added into their grade. Most of the time, answer pages are also linked in there as well, but in the case there is none, submit for grading.Letter Grade
Grades will be provided via request but require students to submit weekly work to be graded and then averaged at the end for an overall grade. Please let me know the week you enter class if you wish to have a grade, and I will keep track of progress throughout the class.Certificate of Completion
I will offer a certificate of completion for this class if requested. Once class ends, send me a message to receive this.Class Experience

General Info: This class is a full course in Geography, meaning we will cover a full year of content topics in the given weeks listed. Continue reading for all the info you need and find the topics in the syllabus. Content does not necessarily build, but flows in an organizational manner that makes sense for covering topics. About the Teacher: I am a certified teacher in various topics, which I teach on Outschool, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree and two Master’s degrees. About this Class: This class is geared towards late Middle School to early High School. Each week we cover a new topic using a variety of learning tools and methods for all styles of learners. Following class each week, I will put a message in the Outschool classroom with a link to a Google folder where I provide my notes from class, resources, and plenty of activities for you to use on the topic. I also link videos in the message for further coverage of topics. ---Part 1 is broken into 5 units covering different regions and will cover culture, government, currency, sites, facts, foods, and more about locations and specific countries. ---Part 2 is one unit that will cover land geography and include Mountain ranges, major bodies of water, islands, biomes, and more for each continent and region. Grading: I do provide an overall grade for the class as a full semester/year class style, but I require at least 2 activities to be turned in weekly to me to grade. I give them a fun food realted challenge each week if they want to participate. Some documents have answer pages, so you can go through the work before submitting and mark things wrong, but if there is not an answer page provided, I will grade the work. Remember, work is not required, but if you desire a grade, I have to see your student’s work. I will also provide fill-in-the-blank notes for your student to have each week if they want to follow along and take notes during class. Helpful Information 1. Please let your student know that I love participation but it is not required. I do ask that they raise their hands to speak so everyone can feel heard and get to participate. 3. Since this class is a course, if there are skipped weeks in the schedule you will be billed for them, but you will only pay for the total amount of weeks that the course is that you are enrolled for. Refund Policy: 1. If a makeup class is set by me due to a change on my end, you will not receive a refund. You can access recordings and all resources. 2. If you must miss class, you must ask for a refund 48 hours before the class meeting. If you ask on the day of class or after, no refund will be given.
Learning Goals
