Description
This full-color, consumable, set of 10 worktexts, and full course Teacher’s Guide will cover the teaching of a full study in geography and history. Each of the 10 units will focus on a different geographical area teaching the people, plants, animals, weather/climate, and brief history of the area. Students are exposed to a wealth of vocabulary words, reading comprehension, mapping activities, and graph studies. Each of the worktexts should take 3-4 weeks to accomplish. All pages are perforated to accommodate students who may need a worksheet approach, rather than the entire book at one time. The detailed Teacher’s Guide provides possible scheduling options, answer keys for each worktext, material lists, additional learning activities, alternate tests, and more. ~Rebecca
