Geography on the Go

The Wuehler FamilyEven if you do not have the time, money, or energy to go places far away right now, you can still have a lot of fun learning about those places right at home. As you read aloud, whether it is a classic book, history book, missionary biography, or just something that comes in the mail–whenever you come across a new place, just stop for a few minutes and point it out on a map. Research the internet; geography resources are endless and virtual field trips are numerous.

What about geography from a homeschooling perspective? Did you know you can search through back issues of the magazine and find just the articles or subjects or authors you are interested in? I am going to give you a quick, easy geography lesson on how to navigate the digital issues for what you need. This is how you do it:

 

1– Go to www.tosmagazine.com. On the top bar, there is a search box that looks like this:

2– Type in the search box the word geography (or whatever you want to look up) press ENTER.You will see the Navigation bar open up like this:

search box 2

3– Go to the little white words on the right side advanced search and click on that. This is what you will see:

 

search box 3

4– From here, you can search in all of our back issues for a subject, author, or even a specific phrase. When you have typed what you want in the search for: box, click the SEARCH button in the top center:

search

This is what will come up from the above search after pressing that button:

 

search

You see there are 67 PAGES of results just for
geography. The archives of the magazine on any subject or author are just a few clicks away!

 

We are here to help you with any subject you are struggling with. Is it burnout? What about math struggles? Do you have gifted children or special needs or struggling learners? Preschool or high school students? How about organization or summer fun ideas? Do you have a favorite author? It’s all here under your SEARCH button. Give it a try and see if you find what you are looking for. If not, please email me and I will be glad to help you navigate all the treasures we have hidden here.

 

So, even if you can’t go places physically, you can really go places with the study of geography in your own home. And don’t forget the most important geography lesson of all found right in your own Bible:

 

“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” Mark 16:15

 

“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:19, 20

 

Prepare those children to preach the gospel, teach the nations, and obey their God. Best geography lesson ever. And, no matter where you go geographically, He is with you. Even right there in your own home with your own children: home where they belong.

–Charlene

“I look forward to THM every Wednesday. I really enjoy Deborah’s articles. For some reason, it must be God, she always writes about what I am needing to hear. Her ability to put scripture and God in the middle of all her articles keeps me coming back. I recently have been enjoying the Youngs’ [articles] because I have a young man (10) in my house. The encouragement of the Youngs is fabulous. I thank God for parents like them that pave the way for parents like myself and my husband.”
