Accurate and up-to-date maps and globes are key in providing social studies lessons to students. The carefully selected items in this project will help provide visual and interactive lessons for the next generation of Geographers! The interactive magnet map is awesome and will help students have fun learning about the world around them. I am so eager to have more resources to connect with my students. Thank you for your time and effort to support education at my school. These tools and learning aids will empower my students to achieve success and leave the confines of their poverty and explore our vast and diverse planet.
