OneStepAtATime Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Well there is Visualizing World Geography but if you don't get it on sale somewhere it is pretty pricey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebonnetgirl Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Wow that is pricey at $249! https://www.christianbook.com/visualize-geography-combination-kindergarten-twelfth-grades/theresa-blain/9780974140162/pd/140162?kw=visualize%20world%20geography&mt=e&dv=c&event=PPCSRC&p=1018818&gclid=Cj0KCQjwwevLBRCGARIsAKnAJvchYp5nWU3E0ocAnNeJkLmKKaDrqaDBeW74VkhujVNvlVIdMVlDpZYaAqF9EALw_wcB#customer_reviews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fourisenough Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Well there is Visualizing World Geography but if you don't get it on sale somewhere it is pretty pricey.Do you know whether this is secular or could be used secularly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneStepAtATime Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I believe it is secular but I can't be 100% certain.

mom31257 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 I am using the Allinone high school linked above as well as adding some textbook reading from Glencoe and a few literature selections. I'm also going to use the Globe Trekker videos included with Amazon Prime, if you have that membership. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenC Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Power of Place isn't a complete course, but it's a nice supplement. And it's free. http://www.learner.org/series/powerofplace/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebonnetgirl Posted July 31, 2017 Author Share Posted July 31, 2017 Thank you all for the suggestions - off to look now! Has anyone used the Funda Funda Geography online course? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom31257 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I wanted to let you know that the GA Virtual site has a new, updated version of World Geography. The link to the old course still works, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janeway Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Does your child love cars? LOL..my children have learned a ton about geography watching this Top Gear show. They race the cars in a different country in every episode. They tell about each country while there and you see tons of video of the part of the country. The kids have no idea they are learning geography. That is, until you try to do a formal geography course and they realize they already know the entire thing. My teens have watched all the episodes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixpix5 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Wow that is pricey at $249! https://www.christianbook.com/visualize-geography-combination-kindergarten-twelfth-grades/theresa-blain/9780974140162/pd/140162?kw=visualize%20world%20geography&mt=e&dv=c&event=PPCSRC&p=1018818&gclid=Cj0KCQjwwevLBRCGARIsAKnAJvchYp5nWU3E0ocAnNeJkLmKKaDrqaDBeW74VkhujVNvlVIdMVlDpZYaAqF9EALw_wcB#customer_reviews It is pricey but I must give a thumbs up to this program. Granted, the videos are cheesy as all get out and they sometimes look like they were shot in someone's garage but it works so well! My husband made fun of it until I had him watch through some and he had to admit how effective it is. Watch through their Africa sample and I bet you will always remember those ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
