This website contains lots of very valuable information that could be used in almost any class or grade level. This section focuses on the geography of East Asia. I find this to be very useful because I feel that geography is one place where students have a difficult time. I also think if students have and idea of where they are talking about the content makes more sense.
This website has sections that focus on all different aspects of geography ranging from the world in spatial terms, places and regions, physical systems, human systems, the environment and society to the uses of geography. They also have links to recommend map as well as lesson plans that re organized by each standard.
There are many uses for this information in the classroom, as a 6th and 7th grade social studies teacher, I feel like these lessons and resources will help me be able to teach the geography of East Asia in a more engaging way. When students think about geography most of them automatically go to a point on the map but be ing able to look at these different sections that talk about the human aspect of geography will help to engage students more.
