Geography isn't just about maps. But, it is very important for students today to learn about the world they live in. We all remember the days of being given a black and white map and being asked to color code the map, draw in rivers and bodies of water and other land formations. This website, from the Utah Education Network, which includes links to many different websites such as Nova, BBC, and National Geographic, makes learning geography interactive and three dimensional. I highly recommend you take a look at the links available. Students can learn about latitude and longitude, countries and capitals, symbols and keys, scale and many more topics. There are quizzes and other interactive activities to allow students to learn about geography and mapping skills in a much more interesting way than with colored pencils. Here is the link:
