Publisher's Description of World Geography Quick Starts
This resource features activities to help students better understand the importance of geography and the world in which they live.
The World Geography Quick Starts workbook features a review of general geography terms and map skills, as well as units focusing on the seven continents: Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia & Oceania, Europe, North America, and South America. Activities include matching, short answer, true/false, word games, and map activities. Each page features two to four quick starts that can be cut apart and used separately. The entire page may also be used as a whole-class or individual assignment.
It's hard to find a good middle school social studies supplement. These provide the parent/teacher with extra practice in targeted topics. The exercises, called quick starts, provide readers with another opportunity to apply what they have learned. You can use the quick starts a couple different ways. Copy and cut them out to use as a warm up activity (there are 2-4 per page). Assign a whole page as additional practice. Put individual quick starts in learning centers to complete in pairs or groups. Make a review game before a test. Come up with your own ideas too! Features include black and white text with some illustrations, dotted cut lines, reproducible for classroom/home use, answers in the back. From Carson Dellosa. 62pgs, pb. ~Sara
