Geography - Better - South - You Teach
Details
This is what we deem the "Better" option for Geography in 2nd Grade. This option utilizes the "You Teach" method, which is a term we have coined for traditional, parent-taught homeschooling.
Following the introductory year geography studies are broken up into four courses: north, south, east and west. They can be done in any order. Our recommendation is based on opportunity to integrate them with history. Geography – South includes the study of continents and oceans, Africa and the Middle East. This course fits well with the Old Testament and Ancient Egypt Veritas history course. Using their old and new maps, Mr. Latitude and Mr. Longitude are able to take their clients anywhere, anytime. In this story, they travel south with the flighty lost boy, Peter Pan. Their adventures include pirates, magic carpets, King Solomon, a merman, a jinni, a sphinx, and even a hippopotamus.
