[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The PTAs put on the Geography Bowls. Very worthwhile![/quote] This sounds interesting. Can you tell us more about it?[/quote] I think it started at Woodlin ES and spread to other schools. Over the course of 3-5 grade, the kids do the US, half the world, then the other half. All students get a 30-40 page packet of material, prepared over the years by parents. Different schools have adapted the materials over time. After a month or so, they compete to be on grade level teams. Teams then prepare to answer questions at the school assembly Geo Bowl. Woodlin is in the midst of theirs right now, I believe, so if you were interested, you could go on their PTA website to learn more about it. [/quote]
