Map
1. Listen to the Europe Geography Song. Listen lots! When you are familiar with the song, start finding the countries on the map. It is so easy to memorize things when we set words to music. By now you should know Continents and Oceans and all of the states in the United States, Asia and Central/South America! Pretty impressive.
Landmarks
2. There are so many famous European landmarks! This month I want you to look up the following places and learn something about each one. You will probably be familiar with several of them, so if you are, learn something new about it. Draw each landmark on THIS MAP that you can print. (The map won’t be very big, so you’ll have to draw pretty small. )
Roman Colosseum
Arc De Triomphe
The Louvre
Big Ben
Eiffel Tower
Parthenon
Stonehenge
Buckingham Palace
Sistine Chapel
Neuschwanstein Castle
Leaning Tower of Pisa
Books!
3. Check out books on Europe from the library. Ask your mom. She may have a few already available for you. Picture books are my favorite way to learn! Here are a few I suggested that your mom may have purchased.

Language Arts
| Project Life: Chores are an important part of family life. Write about your chores. Which ones do you enjoy? Which ones do you dislike? If you had a robot that could do your chores which ones would you have it do? I bet one of your chores is cleaning your room. Do you keep your room pretty clean or messy? Do you prefer it one way or the other? Happy birthday to Janie! Make her a card! Happy birthday to Hyrum! Make him a card! |
