Our Great Big World
Take your family on a global adventure!
What is geography? It's so much more than mountains and valleys, lakes and rivers. Geography is the study of amazing people and cultures, impressive landmarks, and natural wonders. Author Mary Evelyn Notgrass McCurdy talks about a new resource from Notgrass History that allows you to go on a worldwide adventure from the comfort of your own home: Our Great Big World.
The Curriculum
Mary Evelyn Notgrass McCurdy designed this curriculum for students to use successfully in 1st grade, 2nd grade, 3rd grade, or 4th grade. You can easily include students who are a little older or younger in your family study. It combines the flexibility and richness of a literature-based unit study approach with the simplicity of a textbook-based approach.
The Our Great Big World Curriculum Package includes everything you need for a successful study. The course is flexible, so you can choose the assignments and activities that work best for your child.
