Charter-Approved Curriculum
This award-winning homeschool geography unit study is sure to make geography come to life for you and your children! Featuring four of the iconic Holling C. Holling books (Minn of the Mississippi, Paddle to the Sea, Tree in the Trail, and Seabird) children will learn about the Great Lakes and Eastern seaboard, 30 states and their capitals, national landmarks, rivers and lakes, and the continents and oceans. While the course focuses on geography, the literature brings in history, natural science, indigenous animals, and industry. Three main geographic regions of the U.S (Great Lakes and Eastern seaboard, the Mississippi River, Southwest) are covered as well as an introduction to world geography in the book, Seabird.
The homeschool teacher's guide, designed for grades 4th-7th, provides the framework for getting the most out of the Holling books, as well as four specially-designed maps (available for purchase individually) to be colored and labeled by your student. Comprehension questions and discussion prompts will help engage your students while hands-on-activities, web links, and vocabulary words will reinforce what they're learning.
