Lindsay –
I couldn’t be happier with these geography MT plans! When I was looking over curriculum options last year I knew I didn’t want a generic geography study with just maps, dry facts, etc. I was looking for something richer and deeper that would have my kids making connections with the areas around them. We found it in this set of plans with our YMB+ subscription. What I didn’t expect was how much I’d learn and how my kids have made some of their own plans to someday travel and see these places. We learned about the people, landmarks, culture, handicrafts, folklore, and yes, we even did some mapwork. The plans are chock-full of information that we could easily revisit them again. The best part is, that all the hardwork of looking through booklists, sorting through videos/websites, etc. is all done for me. I simply gather the books I want (from the extensive booklist in the plans), pull open the pdf and off we go. It’s been the most enjoyable learning experience that we’re currently on our 3rd set of geography plans. Highly, highly recommend!
