*Some students may not be able to use this book until grade 2. A general rule for new students is to start them one grade behind unless their reading skills are excellent and they’ve had some work with map reading and practical skills.

**These books are a compilation of several published programs and have been coordinated with the Geography Songs program. There are also many videos that can be used with this.

***We have several ways of teaching this. One is with a modified form of the junior high course, which is what should be used with students who never took that course. Students who completed the junior high course can use a predominantly video course, which has some flexibility as to what videos are used. The videos from the Teaching Company are easier and more fun than are the American Adventure.

****We also use many library books and videos with this course.

Note: All Building Thinking Skills can be ordered more cheaply from Timberdoodle; Critical Thinking is from Critical Thinking Press and Software; Success with Maps is from Scholastic
