Three main geographic regions of the U.S are covered in this course as well as an introduction to world geography in the book, Seabird.

I found thisbti be a nice helpers guide.
I personally would have like more picture examples, but it was nice how everything was layed out for each chapter, with extra ideas to research.
Awesome curriculum! A lot of adults would learn from this as well.
Great book selection, the guide helped us to engage with the books.
This is ONE of our favorite BF guides and studies....I have used it several times with different groups of my 9 children.....and now my daughter who loves BF will be using it with my grand-children....
This is such a great way to teach geography. My son loved the maps. His little sister has kept his maps and pulls them out all the time. She cannot wait until it is her turn. Everyone enjoyed the Holling books, not just my son.
