Geography

Charlotte used travel guides or a travel book to learn about geography. The children should be inspired to visit the area they've read about. Note the manners and any descriptions of the people living there.

First mapwork - Have them draw a map of their room.

Before they read a book, look up the location on a map.

In 10-12th grades keep up with newspapers and learn about the regions currently making the news.

Trace maps with tracing paper. If it comes out especially well, cover it with contact paper.
