Modern Elementary Geography - Hardcover

by Jo Lloyd (Author)

Written with warmth and clarity, this edition balances physical and social geography for a truly modern course. Children meet Earth's layers and skies, trace winds and weather, learn coordinates and seasons, then explore continents, coasts, mountains, volcanoes, earthquakes, rivers, cities, and megacities. Later chapters introduce political vs. physical maps, how maps are made, GPS and modern mapping, and the ways geography helps us care wisely for people and places. Throughout, contemporary discoveries and technologies expand Charlotte Mason's original scope, while the literary style supports vivid narrations. Questions follow the lessons; answers are provided for easy checking.
