Plan a Geography Fair. Choose a country to present – make a short presentation such as a folk dance, a song, or poem, or set up a display which may include maps, pictures, projects, a country stamp or sticker for passports, and an international food sample enough for all in attendance. Children receive play passports and go to each station for country stamps (or stickers). They should record 2-4 facts they learn about each country in their passport.
Record places in stories in your passport. Whenever you read a story set in a world location, or study another culture, put a sticker or stamp in your passport for a record of all the places you’ve virtually visited.

This fun craft is a wonderful response to learning about landscapes in geography. The Landforms Books 1 and 2 will give you all the lesson material you need.
The Guide to Canadian Government modules kept our family engaged through the election process. My children (13, 12 and 9) have enjoyed them.
