Welcome to World Geography! In my Social Studies classroom we use the Geography Alive! program. Students will be active participants instead of passive observers, experiencing geography through dramatic role playing, creative simulations, dynamic group projects, and writing from different perspectives. This year we will be covering the regions and people of Canada and the United States, Latin America, and Europe and Russia. Students will be creatively challenged to use the tools of geography to view, analyze, and understand the world around them. The mapping labs and the program’s case-study approach turn students into geographic thinkers. The Geography Alive! materials were designed to deal with topics objectively, respectfully, and in accordance with standards set throughout the country. If you would like to know more about the standards, pacing, and expectations of the course, please download the Course Description for World Geography below.
