Skill Sharpeners Geography

Easily one of the most overlooked subjects in the homeschool curriculum is geography. But Skill Sharpeners Geography lets your child explore his world while learning essential map skills and geography concepts with little fuss on your part. The cross-curricular activities integrate the most current geography standards. Each eye-catching book is divided into colorful collections of engaging, grade-appropriate themes. There are short nonfiction reading selections, comprehension questions, vocabulary practice, and writing prompts in each theme. Optional hands-on activities will excite the kinesthetic child in your home.


Skill Sharpeners Geography takes your child beyond just the basics of geography. It includes a smattering of histories and cultures within our world, while the colorful illustrations and pages will grab your child’s attention. The handy (removable) answer key in the back allows your student to quickly check his own work.

    Evan Moor 6th Grade Geography is a hit in my homeschool!

    I’ve been using Evan Moor Skill Sharpeners for quite some time - we’re an eclectic unschooling family so find fun but not stressful resources is a top priority. The 6th grade Geography Skill Sharpener is perfect. There is reading comprehension, history, writing, and of course lots of geography presented simply without the need for much parental intervention. My 9 yr old Advanced leaner loves it.

    Beautiful Color Pictures

    This is the third year we have used this series of geography. I will say it has been useful in the past, but we have skipped it most of the year. The colorful pictures are this workbook biggest asset.

    Perfect

    Everything I could want to teach about geography in one easy workbook. We love this series for all grade levels but this puts a great independent workbook for my son.
