Come, here's the map.

— Shakespeare

Great homeschool teaching tips and easy little lessons on geography from the River Houses Homeschool Network. Add your name to our free River Houses mailing list to get more posts like these delivered right to your mailbox every week! 😊

❡ States, countries, & treasures: This Homeschool Geography collection includes two special series: our Sunday States & Countries posts that take you on an annual homeschool tour the U.S. states and the nations of the world, and our Weekly World Heritage posts that invite you to visit a different World Heritage Site every week. Follow either one of these miniature curricula for just a few minutes each week with a standard atlas and almanac and you'll enrich your students' understanding of geography and history all through the year.
