Category Description for Cantering the Country
Cantering the Country is a unit study takes the same great approach that Galloping the Globe took to World Geography and applies it to U.S. geography. Each subject has a very state-specific application: geography - physical and topical for each state; science - state trees, birds, flowers, rocks/ minerals, and more; language arts - based on the preamble for each state’s constitution; history/biography - historical figures, leaders, authors, artists, and others; literature - set in the states, written by an author from the state, or relating to some other aspect of the state; and Bible - using the motto for each state to help in character development. There are mapping activities and hands-on projects.
The first section contains overviews and tips on each of the subject areas, suggestions for general activities, website resources, a more detailed language arts guide, teacher preparation points, and ideas for adapting the course for use by older students. The appendix contains reproducible forms for character traits and other state information. While a CD-ROM accompanies the book and includes over 150 reproducibles, the guide is also available in a digital download format.
