Level 4 – Geography of Europe<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
Time Requirements<\/h5>\n

Level 4 – twice a week for 15-30 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Key Texts<\/h5>\n

A Living Geography: Europe<\/i><\/b><\/a> by Jill Papsdorf – a PDF provided free for <\/span>Mater Amabilis<\/span><\/i> families, not to be sold or modified for sale<\/span><\/p>\n

Maps from <\/b>d-maps.com<\/b><\/a> (free, linked in this document, printed by the parent or student)<\/span><\/p>\n

Note: The maps linked below use color for the oceans and seas. You may print in color or black and white. If you prefer, d-maps also provides maps without colored seas, but we have found the colored seas helpful for students.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Atlas of your choice <\/b>– Many families have successfully used the National Geographic Concise Atlas of the World, <\/span>third edition<\/span><\/a> or <\/span>fourth edition<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Globe of your choice<\/b><\/p>\n

Optional: <\/b>National Geographic<\/i><\/b> subscription<\/b> (digital or print; see note)<\/span><\/p>\n

Note: In Level 4, students should begin to read more widely about the world. In the lesson plans, articles related to the mapwork are linked. Sometimes these are National Geographic articles, which require a subscription. In each instance, a non-subscription alternative is provided.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

If you prefer, the student may instead choose to read an article of his or her choice from the most recent print issue of National Geographic or from an older issue you have available.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

List of Maps<\/b><\/h5>\n

You may wish to prepare for the course below by printing the maps at the beginning of the year. Label each map with the week number so students can independently find the ones needed each lesson. Students should save the maps each week as often new information is added over multiple lessons.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
