Publisher's Description of Understanding Geography Level 4
Build Fundamental geography skills with this introductory workbook, containing lower-level elementary maps, illustrations, and activities.Understanding Geography is a grade-specific map, graph and geography skills program that helps students learn about and better understand the world they live in. Understanding Geography is designed to be used as a stand-alone curriculum or to support existing social studies curricula.In Grade Level 4, children review the basic map features as well as understand different types of maps including physical, political, and historical. They also study elevation, weather and climate.
From charts and graphs to longitude and latitude, there's no doubt geography can be a tricky subject to learn. This series helps children understand geography by presenting topics in a clear, uncomplicated way. It shows age-appropriate maps with fun activity questions, and includes review questions to solidify information. Plenty of full-color photos are included as well. As an example, in Level 4 there's a simple map of a section of Beijing with a scale and map key. Questions help kids practice their skills: "On this map, one inch equals how many miles?" "About how many kilometers is it from Mao's tomb to the Fengshan Restaurant?" Some bigger reviews are included in the back, along with glossaries, maps and charts. 72 pgs each, pb. -Chad
Pretty good. But the first few chapters go over concepts already covered in the Level 3 book. A little more detail and a more in-depth look at concepts might have been better.
