 You
can give your children the geographical framework that will help them
understand so much else that they study, with free interactive maps.
Geography is spatial, why not study it spatially?
The heart of geography, and even the source
of its name is the map—a picture of the world which organizes our
understanding of places. Manipulating a map, assembling it, is the
best way to learn where features are, and how near or far they are to
each other. The map is a framework that brings other knowledge
together and makes the world understandable.
The "what?"
and the "where?" are a necessary beginning to understanding
the "who?" and the "why?"
Here are the major
rivers, mountains, deserts and rainforests that have influenced and
continue to influence where and how human beings live in the United
States.
Students need not just names, but a permanent picture of the world in
their minds. Geography is real places, and a map represents those
places much better than words can. Knowing where the Mojave Desert, the
Arkansas River, the Ozark Mountains are helps to orient a student
in the country in a meaningful way.
