My Project

My fifth grade students have been working hard learning all of the states of America! We're bumping up the level by introducing a "Geography Bee" to learn facts and information about geography all over the world!

Students will receive a study resource to prepare for the competition.

We will then do classroom "qualifying rounds" to determine the top kids. Then, those top students will compete against one another in the auditorium to determine who is the leader of the 5th grade and the Geography Bee Champion! The winner will earn an Oculus!
