She learns WAY more in our study sessions than the eight
simple facts she must memorize for her weekly
geography quiz. The US education standards
are ridiculously low! Most of these kids,
I'm convinced, can learn MUCH more than they are being taught.
Thank you. I like geography too. I didn't
post this with the intention of having people
add notes. The idea came to me as I was
writing the description. It's been great fun
for me and Skye. I think it's good for her,
especially, to see the notes from our
international friends and realize it's a big
world filled with many wonderful people.
Finding location...
