kellylwong Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Has anyone used Oak Meadow's World Geography course or Trail Guide to World Geography? I'm looking a both for my upcoming 9th grader next year. They both look good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAJinBE Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I bought the course fully intending to use it. I like Oak Meadow courses in general, especially the literature and history courses. In the end we did AP Human Geography for ninth grade. Actually it was Human Geography with The Cultural Landscape by Rubenstein and taking the AP exam. I just wanted my dd to have an early experience to AP testing so she would see what it was like. But to answer your question, the Oak Meadow course looked really good to me. The textbook is nice with a lot of maps and photos. The syllabus follows their usual format of 36 weekly lessons consisting of an introduction, reading the chapter in the text, answering comprehension questions, and choosing from a list of projects. I think it is at a good level for ninth grade. There are no exams or quizzes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
