More Human Geography!

Here is another link to a PDF that has printables on the World Population.  I've used this link since my first year teaching so I guess it is "outdated" now that the world population is 7 Billion.  Still, it has great ideas for the classroom when covering overpopulation, levels of development, and so on.  Enjoy Exploring!

Population Education

Sins of My Father

I just recently saw this movie with my husband off HBO.  Great film about Pablo Escobar and the Drug Wars.  Check it out!

IMDB: Sins of My Father





7 Billion

It has been so long since I last posted.  I have been swampped with lesson planning, copy making, drill team, NHS, and be a wife and mother!  But I'm BACK! 

A friend of my came across this website that I thought had a lot of great resources that we can use in the classroom when covering Human Geography.  So I'd like to share this link with you and get your feedback on it. 

I'll do my best to post more links and information as I find more time to do so...

Happy Halloween!

World of 7 Billion

Map Skills

Another great link I found.  This one covers map projections, hemispheres, equator and even practice questions!
