Reflect on your readings of Ch. 9&10 and the great strategies to teach history and geography! View the Atlas video below on teaching geography. Address the following in your initial post. How were you taught geography as a K-12 student and/or how you have seen it taught in your field experiences? What did you think overall of the lesson? What do you think were the most effective strategies in the lesson(s) and why? Then, locate and share a K-5 grade-appropriate resource for teaching history or geography. For example, in the Week 5 Module I shared a great website, World Geography Games, for honing geography skills. The resource could be a website with lesson plan ideas, videos, virtual field trip, center ideas, game, video, book, article, simulation, webquest, etc… that supports teaching history or geography. Give a brief description of the resource and provide a link. Atlas Case #589 Cooperating Mapmaking Through Art Integration. This case shows a teacher facilitating group work as her students work cooperatively in small groups to create maps using various art materials.
