Promoting Geography Awareness
I’m not usually one to brag, but one of my proudest accomplishments in life is winning the National Geographic Bee at my school as an eighth grader. Although I may have peaked early, winning the bee set this once geography obsessed, nerdy middle schooler on the path to becoming an even nerdier geography obsessed adult. This lifelong passion is the reason I try to weave a range of geography themed lessons and activities into my classes.
In honor of Geography Awareness Week, I would like to share a few quick and easy ideas you can use to teach geography skills in your classroom in order to expand your students’ global geographic perspective!
As I’m sure you know, there is more to geography than just simply locating points on a map. Geography also includes exploring the relationship humans have with the physical environment. To study this relationship, geographers investigate various ways the natural world influences human societies and cultures, and different ways the actions and behaviors of humans, in turn, impact the environment.
