Students experienced geography in a BIG way. Mobile Productions, Inc. presented a 22 foot diameter model of the Earth. Each panel of the dome represented one of our 24 time zones.
Grades 3-5 saw a course with some of the following topics:
Continents
Oceans
Mountains
Rivers
Time Zones
Latitude
Longitude
Geology
Plate Tectonics
Students were able to visualize "where in the world" they are.
