Is your child a geography guru or very new to this topic? In this class everybody will be able to learn something new.
This is an introductory class for the on-going Let's Travel the World Together class (in which we learn about a new country each week).

We will not only learn Geography in this class, but also get a taste of the local culture, exposing the students to the similarities and differences between nations. 

Class Structure and Content:
 - Brief introduction
 - What do you know or have heard about this country? Students can also share pictures or stories if they have travelled there with their family (optional).
 - Presentation of new information (including location, capital, flag, geographical features, typical local food, traditional dance, and even learn a word in the local language); We will touch on the history of Ukraine and talk briefly about the Soviet Union. We will not talk about the current events.
 - Kahoot Game (to check the retention of the new information in a fun, engaging way)

This will be an interactive lecture in which learners will actively participate by asking/answering questions and expressing their opinion. We will use a Nearpod presentation for visuals (pictures and/or a short video). Additionally, if there are enough learners in the class and if they have access to Kahoot, we will play a fun Kahoot game to test the new information retention. (If your learner is not able to use additional software, please let me know, and we will find a way to work around that) 

There are additional activates that learners can complete after the class, including creating their own travel passport or scratch off each country as we visit it using a scratch-off map.

See you soon, travelers! 

Note: This class is scheduled to last 40 min, however if there is less then 3 participants the class might run a little shorter (depending on learners' engagement and chattiness)

If your learner enjoys this class and might be interested in learning about other countries, I offer a number of one-time classes, as well as ongoing and Flex classes in which we learn about a new country each week (all countries covered are learners' requests). Please reach out if you have any questions!
