- Geography
- Children may begin by learning about people and animals from different regions and eventually use geography as a tool to understand places, cultures, and the world in spatial terms.
- Map skills
- Children develop map skills by reading and drawing maps of familiar places and then using maps to locate places, measure distances, and compare regions.
- World culture
- Learning about the people and places in our world helps children to become global citizens.
- Animal facts
- Even very young children can begin to categorize animals by species, imitate their sounds and learn interesting facts about them.
