Geography Practice Grades 1-4
I used topics from this source to review map and
geography skills at the beginning of the 2004-2005 school year. We had not taught geography over the
summer and my child was learning longitude when we stopped for the summer. I
felt it would be too difficult for him to just pick up where he left off, so I
made a review book that covered the topics he learned in the 2003-2004 school
year.
Although these review topics were meant to be covered
over a week, we did all the
exercises for each topic in one day.
