"Basic Geography"
by
HistoryRepeats Friday, June 27, 2008
Making geography relevant, this binder provides appropriate practice in learning geography concepts through short lessons and lots of practice pages for reinforcements. I use this geography binder to supplement my history instruction and is great for my inclusion students. Even though they benefit from the simplicity and clear and concise instructions and activities, all of my students learn the basics of geography through these sheets. The highly visual graphics, charts, and maps complement the skills being addressed and make learning the concepts appealing. The reading passages are a great addition to the lesson and spark great discussions and conversations about the geography of our country and its history. I highly recommend this resource.
