We have been learning about Geography in Social Studies for the past few weeks. All students should be able to name the seven continents and four oceans. We learned about using coordinates on a map to find specific locations as well as using the compass rose to move around the map. We use "Never East Soggy Waffles" and "Never Eat Shredded Wheat" to help us remember the directions in the correct order as you go around the compass rose. Everyone made a map of an imaginary city (Jeffersonville, Nevada) and used a map key to add symbols on their map to show schools, rivers, forests, buildings, and parks.
