Geography in the classroom
This is the root of Moffat's Travels. By teaching with Moffat, my students learn about geography and the unique places, both manmade and natural, that fill the United States. We are fortunate to call the beautiful city of Colorado Springs, at the base of Pikes Peak "America's Mountain", our home. Colorado Springs has also been named "Olympic City USA" and is home to world class athletes.
We learn stories of people and places from across the country. and all the while, these students are writing their own atlas. Technology, including Google Earth, virtual field trips, Youtube videos, and digital books, support our studies on a daily basis. The students learn how to do research and practice grade level writing skills all while learning new content.
