If you choose the
GeoDeo Journey Into
Africa Self-Guided Lesson Plans, then your student can work more
independently while you will have the freedom to check the work as needed. The
only additional materials needed besides the Journey Into Africa Resource Book
and the lesson plans are a 3-ring binder and a notebook, though the Review Flash
Cards are recommended. The self-guided lesson plans come in a shrink-wrapped set
of sheets that are 3-hole punched to be put into a notebook of your choice.
There are two sections: the student pages with the daily lesson and the activity
sheets and the parent's pages with the lesson plans and answers. Subjects
specifically covered in the self guided lesson plans include history, geography,
science, and vocabulary.
The student portion of the lesson plans are reproducible "for the family only".
Grade 7 and up, but can be used for K-12 |
You are here: 
You
need this basic building block to use the GeoDeo Journey into Africa curriculum.
It's also a helpful supplement to any geography curriculum.
With
88 pages, the Journey Into Africa How to Draw and Color book has instructions
for drawing African animals. Step-by-step instructions for drawing 19 different
animals are given with sample drawings. Unique to this book are the detailed
"how to color" steps which produce beautiful results with colored pencils.
You'll
find over 46 pages of coloring and activities about Africa. On the inside
covers, there are small color pictures of how each coloring page should be
colored. That's helpful.
Journey
Into Africa Songs CD includes 18 traditional and original songs that teach about
Africa. The variety of singers and songs make this a very ear-pleasing and
instructional CD. The song tunes are catchy and the recording is of professional
quality. If you are studying Africa, this CD is a great addition and adds a
music component.
The
Journey Into Africa Rhythms Improvising CD is neat for learning about rhythms.
There's information about getting free lesson plans to use with this CD. I
listened to various samples and am off to get the free lesson plans for use with
our sons who love drums! Again this CD was professionally recorded with high
quality and the speaker/instructor' voice and the various music samples are
pleasing to the ear. Good listening for drives in the car.
These
240 review cards are a key element in helping students retain information
learned in the GeoDeo Journey Into Africa™
Resource Book. The cards can be used as trivia questions with any African study
or with games like baseball and Jeopardy®.
