Geography, chat, Wednesday May 2

Geography--the whole idea of it. What is it, what's it good for, if you're not going to "teach" it, can't you at least be aware of it so that you can balance what you're presenting, discussing and considering in high-level, cool and thoughtful ways? (But don't tell your kids. Be casual.)

Those who went to school often think they "know geography" but it might be lists of countries, and maps, in their heads. "Geo" does mean world," and "graph" does mean writing or drawing or maps. What else ties in with geography in the real world?

Bring a story or an idea.

Geography is featured on page 81 of The Big Book of Unschooling or at http://sandradodd.com/geography/
