My Project

During the COVID pandemic, everyone's world became quite small and isolated. Teaching geography helps open students' eyes and perspectives to see beyond their homes and self. These interactive tools will help with that goal. The interactive USA map and the interactive globe will provide an entire geography class the ability to pair up and explore not only locations of our states and continents/oceans but also capitals, land forms, countries, and culture. The Alaska desk maps will be a wonderful resource for exploring everything about our state, beyond Palmer. These items will aid in broadening our students' worlds and minds.
