Description
Closely following Charlotte Mason’s original text, Elementary Geography (#066878) this newly edited and revised edition expands on the original geography topics, leading to some topics being broken into multiple lessons. Each lesson includes a poem to be read before starting the lesson. These lessons are meant to be taught in a read-aloud manner. This becomes a great opportunity for older students to read poems aloud and work on those narration skills. Older students also have additional articles that can be accessed electronically from the publisher, for further reading and study. There are colored photographs, illustrations, and sketches throughout the text as well to share as you read. To provide further visual aids the Maps and Picture book (007855) is also helpful. 140 pgs, pb. ~Rebecca

Thus, the Living Geography Book 1 curriculum was developed. This curriculum includes a revised and expanded edition of the text. In addition to the Living Geography Book 1 text there are also additional electronic articles for older students to read that the publisher will provide access to upon purchase.
Additional convenient components to the text are the Teacher’s Notes, which are indispensable. Providing prep lists for activities, directions for each activity, questions to ask, check lists to organize your lesson, and areas to take notes—you will feel completely equipped to walk students, of any age, through Charlotte Mason’s geography course. The Maps and Pictures Book will provide a visual for certain lessons aiding in further comprehension. Includes global maps, continent maps, room layouts, and striking photographs from around the world. Students are equipped with a lesson outlined Geography Notebook to take down their own notes and drawings throughout the program, these are outlined in the Teacher’s Notes book. Finally, the Exam Questions & Answers book is a place to write down exam questions and document students’ answers to any exam questions given.
While these components are not necessary to complete or work through Elementary Geography or Living Geography Book 1, they are incredibly helpful in organizing and walking students and teachers through the course and facilitating getting the most out of Charlotte Mason’s geography text. ~Rebecca
