Geography Freebies & Just For Fun!


 
If you have been homeschooling your children very long you probably have already heard of Knowledge Quest. They offer some wonderful resources for geography. I just finished looking at their Map Trek: v3 New World. Since we will be covering U.S. History next year I thought it would be a great learning tool to add. I will probably pick up the Map Trek: v4 Modern World also, since our curriculum will cover from the New World until current history. They have a great freebie available that I think you would enjoy called Globalmania (Master World Geography in just 7 months). It includes lots and lots of resource links, maps, and weekly guidance for studying geography. It is available along with two other freebies ~ What Really Happened..., and the Huge Map Trek Sampler Pack ~ when you sign up for their newsletter. Take a look and enjoy.

Just for Fun! You might want to take a look at their current Featured Article of the Month also. Although St Patrick's Day has passed there is still some great information and links available in this article. Here is one of the links ~ Make Flubber. What kid would not enjoy making this? HAVE FUN!

Flubber looks like fun. I'm going to start doing art/crafts with my 16 month old.
