Geography & USA State Resource Roundup
|
Learning about geographical locations and the environments that are influential to the culture of the people who live there is fundamental to understanding history. It allows them to paint a picture as they hear about important events and where they took place. What are the best resources available to teach students geography? Here on this page you will find numerous resources at your fingertips. I have searched the internet and book stores to bring you a one-stop shopping page with a resource roundup!
Below you will find resources for all ages. I have included age recommendations, descriptions and page numbers to help you make the best choice for your students. As a side note, many books in the 8-12 year old range can most certainly be used for high school age if your goal is content rather than challenging their literary level. I have divided up the resources in the following categories and in this order: 1. World Geography Resources 2. Countries of the World Resources 2. America and USA States Resources **I am currently adding more resources and editing this page so please check back for updates.-Deanna |

This clever new memory recall game challenges players to memorize as many details as they can in just 10 short seconds. Turn the timer over, concentrate on the card and try to memorize as many details of the picture as you can. Players then roll the dice to determine which question will be asked and quiz each other on what they remember. Questions can be asked like how many stripes are on the skirt? What's the capital city? Find the name of the famous person shown. Age 8 and up.
