Free Printable Geography Worksheets

These geography worksheets should help as you teach your children about our world. Basically, we will utilize some free, printable PDF documents to explore the science of the earth’s surface including its topography (surface), resources, climate, and population.

I know that sounds pretty complicated but it really isn’t. It hasn’t changed much since you may have been in school. However, now students do have the added benefit of using the Internet for their research. How fortunate!

According to the 1984 creation of standards by the National Council for Geographic Education, the five themes of geography include:

Location

- which deals with the specific address, point on a map, time zone or general whereabouts of a place on the earth

Place

- the physical and human description such as topography, animals, plants, and ideas/behavior influencing how they relate to the place

Human/Environment Interaction

- the positive or negative effects people have on a place, how they have adapted to life there or changed the landscape

Movement

- the transportation of people, goods, and ideas from one place to another

Region

- an informal or formal area that shares similarities of beliefs, politics or topographical features, such as "The Rockies" in western North America

Use these supplemental hand-outs as a complement to most any homeschool curriculum to enrich or review your studies.

Or, you can print them and include with lapbooks you create on a favorite topic. Encourage your children to keep them together in a binder or notebook for future use.

Although many of the popular homeschool curriculum programs may include supplemental blackline masters or student activities workbooks, there can still be a need to include extra worksheets.
