Today, I’m showing you how to find a well laid out homeschool high school geography curriculum. Also, look at more ideas on my how to homeschool high school page.Too, look at my page Homeschool Geography for hands-on and simple ideas and tips.

The anatomy of a well laid out homeschool high school geography curriculum is not an easy find because so many programs want to stay focused only on a text-bookish style which I have a problem with.

If you have been homeschooling for any length of time then you know that after you get out of the preschool grades that homeschool geography curriculum options are slim to none.

How to Find A Well Laid Out Homeschool High School Geography Curriculum

Okay, that might be a slight exaggeration, but it sure feels like it when you homeschool the middle school/junior high and high school years.

So we have not wasted any time starting on our new North Star Geography curriculum by Tyler Hogan at Bright Ideas Press.

I have to show you some of the highlights of our new homeschool geography program.

High School Geography Curriculum Planning a Cinch

Because we have just started using it, you know I have to organize as much as I can first.

So if you missed Homeschool Geography Go To Resources that you can use alongside this curriculum, be sure to check them out.

Next, I just set up some quick go to temporary binders (you know I love them and especially in hot pink). Until I get the sweet curriculum in my little hands in final form, it’s hard to decide on an organizational system.

So just giving you a heads up now that no, the curriculum is not hot pink, though it would be a great color for it.

You know I tend to be pretty candid brutal on curriculum providers about giving tips for scheduling and planning when it comes to teacher’s manuals. It is one of the things I always mention when I review curriculum.

Maybe it comes from helping so many struggling homeschoolers. Please, I don’t want to guess how to make this curriculum work with multiple children.

Give me some options for scheduling and North Star Geography delivers.

Options include a one year intense schedule, a two year schedule and a one semester course when you need the bare bones.

Hands-on or Hands-off High School Geography

After the younger years, some curriculum really lags in the junior high and high school years for hands-on ideas too.

Mr. Awesome is the reason that I had to push myself outside of my comfortable teaching zone because he learns best by hands-on.

So right away I printed our first lesson so that he could get started. But also where possible, I will be including Tiny in this curriculum too.

High School Geography Curriculum Resources

It definitely can be used with multiple children though you may need to do some tweaking for your younger children or leave some parts out altogether.

Look at how North Star Geography is set up.

16 Lessons total. Each lesson is about 10 –15 pages and then you decide which activities to include. At least 3 hands-on activities to choose from for each lesson. This doesn’t mean you have to do all 3 of them or any of them. Lots of options here.	Note Taking Pages for those that like their geography a little less hands-on. I love the fact they are not called worksheets, because taking notes is a vital skill needed in high school so it’s modeled here.
World Research Questions. Again, research is the back bone of a well laid out high school program that uses higher critical thinking skills. You can make the program as rigorous as you need.	Quizzes, Quiz Answers and Final Exam. Depending on how your teen learns best, you have plenty of choices or ways to review. And especially if you are like me and are using this for high school credit, you will need to choose some of them. Grading Rubric, glossary, graphic organizers, reference maps and outline maps.
Build an atlas. I think this has to be the heart of the program and we are so excited about this feature.	Memorization Lists. We have always enjoyed memorizing lists and the boys felt no different about the memorization lists in this curriculum.

Homeschool High School Geography Resources and Books

Geography for high school should still be fun and hands-on. It can take years to find the right resources. However, I’ve gathered up some of my favorite books and resources.

North Star Geography

North Star Geography covers basic geography skills (maps, navigation) as well as physical geography (topography, biosphere, structure of the earth) and human geography (environmental stewardship, agriculture, culture, heritage & more)—all from a Christian perspective. Each lesson in the Reader is approximately 10-15 pages and geared toward junior high-high school students, though it may be adapted for younger students; the text features full-color maps, illustrations, and interesting sidebars. Accompanying each lesson on the Companion Guide, hands-on project options, as well as an “atlas building” section where students label outline maps, are provided. Note-taking pages feature ten questions taken from the text that can be used for review or comprehension questions, as well as for a study guide for the exam

Welcome to the Wonderful World of Geography

Brenda Runkle’s World Physical Geography makes an often-boring topic come to life!

With our world seeming to shrink with each passing week, knowing about virtually all peoples and nations is more important than ever.

It focuses on physical geography, providing the basis for learning the fundamentals of geography.

Geography Challenge

Challenges students to remember important facts and encourages them to enjoy themselves in the process.Deals with facts and principles related to the study of life science, physical science, and earth and space science.

Around the World in 180 Days, 2nd Edition (two-volume set)

Around the World in 180 Days is a geography and history program covering the history, geography, and culture of each continent. And yet this is not a textbook. It is a series of questions that the student must research in order to answer. Plenty of resources are suggested to help students conduct their research, and the teacher's edition provides all the answers. This revised and updated curriculum is written with a multilevel approach with study questions for students of all grade levels, making this a curriculum your whole family can do together! This two-volume set includes an illustrated teacher's edition and a student workbook.

Lifepac History & Geography & Geography 11th Grade

Student worktexts include daily instruction and review as well as ample opportunity for assessment of student performance using self tests and unit tests. To encourage individualized instruction, we have included a teacher's guide designed to help you guide your student's learning experience according to his specific interests and needs. This essential teaching resource includes teaching notes for each unit, a complete answer key, and information about additional resources and learning activities.

Trail Guide To World Geography *OP

If you would like a geography course that includes mapping activities, atlas usage, research, notebooking and culture with very little teacher preparation, look no further. The Trail Guide to World Geography is a week one, day one kind of teacher s manual with daily geography drills (answers included) and numerous weekly assignment choices. <P> Multi-level geography course for 36 week school year for elementary through high school. <P> Assign as much or as little as YOU decide.

Of course memorizing lists in our home is a competitive thing so they got to memorizing the first list from Lesson 1.

Does anybody fight in your house over who is going to be the first one to call out the list?

Other Homeschool Geography Activities

And they started on the beginning touches of their atlases by designing their unique covers.

What do you think? Does it sound like a good fit so far for your crew?

How to Make an Easy Wetlands Paper Plate Habitat Diorama

I have an easy wetlands paper plate habitat diorama. You’ll also love my post Above & Below: Pond Unit Study, Hands-on Ideas, & Lapbook

Creating a paper plate habitat diorama is a great way to incorporate a project that is super inexpensive and less work.

One thing I love about a diorama is that it can be done by everyone from preschool through high school and showcases each child’s imagination.

How to Make an Easy Wetlands Paper Plate Habitat Diorama

Not every project has to be a huge display.

Creating something small like creating a paper plate habitat diorama allows for a quicker project.

Some topics you don’t need a super deep dive into, and it is also very inexpensive.

We always have a pack of paper plates on hand for craft projects, quick lunches, or to use as a disposable paint palette.

Since we were gathering items from outside and drawing our own animals, we were able to complete this project for free.

5 Facts About Wetlands

The wetlands are defined as areas where water covers the soil or is near the surface of the soil all year.

This includes swamps, marshes, estuaries, mangroves, mudflats, ponds, deltas, coral reefs, billabongs, lagoons, shallow seas, bogs, lakes, and floodplains.

Look at these 5 facts about wetlands.

About 30% of the Earth’s wetlands are in North America and are found on every continent except Antarctica.
One of the largest wetlands in the world is the Pantanal which covers over 93,000 miles over Brazil, Bolivia, and Paraguay in South America.
The Florida Everglades are sitting on a bed of limestone, which helps produce clean water for the state.
Many of the plants that are found in the wetland either grow under the water or float on top of it. But some grow out of the ground like trees. The 3 main types of plants found here are emergent, floating, and submerged.
Wetlands can be made of saltwater or freshwater and sometimes they are a combination of both.

I referenced Wildlife Anatomy for ecosystems like wetlands.

It is also a great reference for animals that live within the wetlands like alligators, along with Nature Anatomy which also includes many plants and animals.

More Paper Plate Habitat Diorama Inspiration

Here are some more wonderful and creative ideas for using paper plates to create mini ecosystems.

Preschoolers will love making and playing with the Paper Plate Magnetic Duck Pond
How fun is this Paper Plate Aquarium Fish diorama?
Create a Mini Beach Scene, add in crabs and other animals you would see along the shoreline.
Here is an even smaller idea, How to Make a Paper Plate Mini-Diorama
This Fancy Mushroom Diorama could be made using paper platters or plates.

Now you can take this paper plate habitat diorama and use it for anything- desert, ocean, woodland, arctic, etc.. but for this one, I want to focus on giving you information and activities for the wetlands.

Decide for yourselves which wetland you want to create for your project, this will determine the type of flora and fauna you add to it.

Next, add some of these activities for studying about wetlands.

Activities for Learning About the Wetlands

Wetlands Paper Plate Habitat Diorama

Typically, in dioramas, we often use small plastic animals.

But because our paper plate habitat diorama is so much smaller we decided to draw our little animals to keep it lightweight and to keep the scale small.

If you would still like to include the plastic animals for your diorama or to use in sensory bins, etc.

This Safari Ltd River set has a lot of animals found in wetlands.

You will need:

A paper plate
Small pebbles
Small sticks
moss
Plastic animals- optional
Cardstock
Paints
Markers

First, fold the paper plate in half, creasing it sharply.

Open the paper plate and paint half of it green and half blue.

Squeeze a generous amount of blue, green, and tan onto your plate where you would like your water, and brush it out, leaving it thick so it has some dimension.

Water in wetlands is generally kind of murky and muddled so wanted it to look natural.

While your plate is drying, have your child research and draw several wetlands animals for the habitat onto white cardstock.

Once the plate is dry, paint or use a marker to add trees in the background on the top half of the plate, against the sky.

Then, add moss, sticks, and small pebbles to the base. You can glue them down or leave them loose for additional play.

You can also create trees by hot gluing moss to small sticks, then secure them to the base with a little puddle of glue.

Add plastic animals or the paper ones your child drew to the scene.

Geronimo Stilton Race Against Time And Make Pottery Like Ancient Greeks

July 6, 2023 | Leave a Comment
This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see my full disclosure policy.

In Geronimo Stilton Race Against Time, our favorite mouse finds himself smack dab in the middle of the Ice Age, Ancient Greece, and The Renaissance with the help of The Paw Pro Portal. Be sure to grab more Geronimo Stilton Books ideas and crafts on my page.

Geronimo shares a fun tale (or is it tail) which takes us through a very important period of ancient history.

Geronimo Stilton Race Against Time And Make Pottery Like Ancient Greeks

One thing I always enjoyed about the Geronimo Stilton books is that they introduce famous historical figures and places in a somewhat silly way, in graphic novel format.

We will focus on the second tale about Ancient Greece in the book The Race Against Time (Geronimo Stilton Journey Through Time #3.

The Race Against Time (Geronimo Stilton Journey Through Time #3

Kids really love the series. This story even gives an illustration of the Greek alphabet.

Your child will be introduced to Phidias the Greek Sculptor, playwright Sophocles, and historian Thucydides.

Too, they’ll learn about symposiums, Agora, the main square, and “visit” the Parthenon.

Ancient Greece was a period of massive growth in the arts, wars, fashion and had busy ports, architecture, and astronomy.

The Ancient Greeks made their pots from clay.

Their pots were used for cooking, storing food to eat and drink from, as decoration, for perfumes and oils, and even urns to store the ashes of those cremated.

Sure, they were very useful, but they were also works of art.

Over time they went from simple decorations on their pottery to more intricate artwork.

For example, they used zig-zag patterns, gods and goddesses, chariots, buildings, people, and animals.

Pottery was a dark orange with black designs and later became reversed.

We are going to recreate our Greek pottery using a terra cotta pot and turn it into something that might be found as archaeologists dig through the sites of Ancient Greece.

Then I have more Geronimo Stilton book activities for kids.

Geronimo Stilton Book Activities

Next, look at these other crafts to go with the books.

Also, add these other activities to your learning day.

Activities to Learn About Ancient Greece

Too, after reading about Geronimo’s adventures, here are more fun hands-on ideas.

Finally, look how to make this fun Ancient Greek pottery designs.

This art project is a great learning activity because first they are researching Greek designs and pottery, and then it leads neatly into a discussion about archeology.

You can even add a third component by having them attempt to put the pieces back together like a 3D puzzle at the end.

The broken pieces of pottery look great lying in a basket or loose on a shelf to create a fun-themed vignette in your homeschool space.

Before starting your project, examine pictures of Greek pottery that archeologists have uncovered to get an idea of the types of designs they used. Here is a great video on YouTube about Ancient Greek Pottery.

Geronimo Stilton Race Against Time – Recreate Greek Pottery Craft

You can purchase inexpensive terra cotta pots at home improvement stores, Walmart, or Dollar Tree even.

We found this one abandoned in the garden and loved the aging of it so we gave it a good cleaning and used it rather than a new one.

You will need:

Terra Cotta pot
Permanent marker
Pillowcase
Hammer

First, let your child decorate their pot using a black permanent.

You can also paint it, but I find that a permanent marker flows so nicely on the pots and makes a lot less mess.

You can draw on famous Greek landmarks.

Add some Greek men and women.

Or whatever you like. Let them take their time adding whatever they want, you can even make it comic style with large individual cells around it to tell a story.

Now at this point, you can leave your pot as it is or move on to the next step which is to create broken pot shards like archeologists often find.

Place the pot in an old pillowcase or wrap it in a towel.

Give it a few good hits with a hammer, you may prefer to take this part outside. I like to try and leave some larger pieces, so the art is still identifiable.

Carefully, remove the pieces from the pillowcase, the edges may be sharp.

Use them to decorate a shelf or move onto another step and challenge your child to put the pieces back together if they can.

I would recommend only doing this with older children as any glue, but hot glue is going to take too long to dry.

Here we assembled a few of our pot shards back together with glue and tape.

How to Make an Easy Back to School Yarn Wrapped Pencil

This yarn wrapped pencil is a great upcycle project too for all those Amazon boxes that have been coming bringing new supplies or curriculum.

You will need:

Cardboard
scissors
Pink yarn
Yellow yarn
Gray yarn
Tan yarn
Markers
Hot glue gun

First, cut out a pencil shape in any size you like ours is 12” x 4” using scissors or a straight edge boxcutter blade.

For younger children, you might go ahead and color in each section to give them a little bit of a guide on how far to go with each color.

This also helps if there are pieces of cardboard showing through.

Hot glue the end of your pink yarn to the cardboard and wrap the entire section.

When it is covered snip the end and glue that in place.

To finish off the very end I just wrapped and glued the pink yarn all the way across.

Move to the next color (gray) and secure the end down and wrap again as far as you wish to go.

Repeat with yellow, covering the pencil well up near the pointed end.

Color the pencil tip black with a marker.

You could also continue with a bit of black yarn but that takes a lot more glue to attach it so I find it just as effective to color it in.

Wrap the final part with a tan color to represent the exposed wood and secure the end with hot glue. I like to tuck a couple of strands of tan underneath the yellow.

You can use it as a display on your back-to-school table, a tiered tray, or anywhere else you want to add a bit of back-to-school whimsy.

Black Beauty

Black Beauty by Anna Sewell. Black Beauty is a perennial children's favourite, one which has never been out of print since its publication in 1877. It is a moralistic tale of the life of the horse related in the form of an autobiography, describing the world through the eyes of the creature. In taking this anthropomorphic approach, the author Anna Sewell broke new literary ground and her effective storytelling ability makes it very easy for the reader to accept the premise that a horse is recounting the exploits in the narrative. The gentle thoroughbred, Black Beauty, is raised with care and is treated well until a vicious groom injures him. The damaged horse is then sold to various masters at whose hands he experiences cruelty and neglect. After many unpleasant episodes, including one where he becomes a painfully overworked cab horse in London, Black Beauty finally canters towards a happy ending

How to Make Carrot Apple Oat Muffin Horse Treats

This recipe makes 12 muffins but can easily be halved or doubled depending on your needs.

You will need:

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large carrots (1 cup)
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 cup oats

First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Next, spray the bottom and sides of a muffin tin well.

Grate both carrots.

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir until combined thoroughly.

Fill muffin tins ⅔ of the way full and pat down ingredients. You could also just spread it out in a pan to cut after baking or roll them into balls or little patties.

Bake in a preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, until the tops are golden brown.

I like to leave mine just a little bit soft, but you can bake them until the moisture is mostly out for a crunchy treat if you like.

Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool completely.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
