| Crosscountry USA 2 - Educational crosscountry
drive. Your geography
classroom becomes a real
American adventure! Students
drive an 18-wheel truck around
the country picking up and
delivering a variety of
commodities. As they travel
between any of 203 cities,
theyll learn valuable skills
including problem solving, map
reading and decision making.
On-screen maps and a compass
allow students to learn
directions and plan the most
efficient route. Students
learn time management, decide
when to eat and sleep, and
watch road conditions.
Photographs of cities, famous
places, and landmarks add a
visual dimension to the
journey. Descriptions and
pictures of each of the 53
commodities teach students the
basis of the economy. Along
the way, students develop
geographic literacy. They
learn about the relationships
between places, goods, and
regions. In addition, they
develop an understanding of
their place in the context of
this information. Crosscountry
USA 2 is engaging enough to
keep students of all ages
interested. This program is
easily integrated into your
multi-strand curriculum.
Crosscountry USA 2 is a
powerful tool for long-term
learning. It has a place in
every grade 4 to 9 classroom. |
