Free Homeschool Geography Resources
Although we’re finished with our ‘world tour’ and geography studies for now, some of you may not be aware of the free geography printables I put together for our lessons.
Click on a globe below to search for geography resources by continent. Each page has downloads for flag coloring and information pages, mapping pages and links to blog post full of lesson plans and additional information.
Here’s a quick look at a few more free geography printables to help you out.
World Flag Cards ~ There are 35 countries represented based on the countries that are studied in Galloping the Globe {with a few extras thrown in}. The set also contains 6 cards that represent 6 of the 7 continents {Antarctica is excluded} so cards can also be sorted by the continent the country flag belongs to. Country name cards are also included for your child to match the names of the countries with the appropriate flag. Also includes a key at the end of the document to help double check your answers.
Children Just Like Me Notebooking Page ~ This notebooking page was
created to go along with the book Children Just Like Me. Your child collects all the information for the notebooking sheet from the children's stories in the book. You can read more about the page here.
Country Fact Notebooking Page ~ This notebooking sheet can be used for any country. There is room to record information about the country: country facts, famous people, landmark(s), and other fun information. Also room to draw pictures, add clip art and journal. You can see an example here.
Science Fact Notebooking Page ~ Similar in layout to the Country Facts Sheet notebooking page, this has room for famous inventors and inventions, science facts about the country, plant and animal life, etc…
Famous Person Notebooking Page ~ Have a famous person that lived in the country you are studying? This is a notebooking sheet records information about that person: where s/he lived, hobbies, childhood, and what they are famous for. There’s even a little space to add a picture if you’d like.
Country Factsheet ~ Jot down some notes on the country you are
studying: square miles, longitude/latitude, natural resources, religions, languages and more. It also has space to add a picture of the country you are learning more about.
And if you’re looking for more geography fun, you can take a virtual adventure with Little Passports ~ all you have to do is walk to your mailbox to start. :)
Hope that a few of these resources help you all out!
