WORLD STUDIES: CREDIT:
1 DESCRIPTION: The course will help students gain insight and understanding into the relationships among people and places as they learn, use, and apply the facts and concepts of geography. To help students develop an appreciation of geography, the Five Themes (location, place, human/environmental interaction, movement, and regions) will be applied throughout the course. Students will cover units on map reading, earth science/physical geography, economic and social systems. To give the student a better understanding of the diversity of the world's cultures, different countries and regions of the world will be examined. It is suggested that students purchase a teacher-recommended World Atlas for home use. WORLD STUDIES SYLLABUS AND LINKS HERE
