An Award-Winning Product at an Award-Winning Price!

The Homeschool Buyers Co-op is pleased to present a GroupBuy exclusive for the award-winning geography curriculum classic, Mapping the World by Heart, from FableVision Learning.

When it was first released, Mapping the World by Heart was awarded the "Breaking the Mold" Award by the U.S. Department of Education. It has been through nine complete revisions, and is updated regularly.

Fun, Memorable Geography

If you placed blank sheets of paper in front of your students, could they draw a detailed map of the entire world? It may seem hard to believe, but after exploring the innovative Mapping the World by Heart curriculum, students can have a comprehensive knowledge of geography that allows them to map the world entirely from memory!

Designed for grades 5-12, Mapping the World by Heart includes a set of maps and a comprehensive teacher's guide that makes it easy to integrate lessons and activities into any class's existing curriculum. Combining memorization with the real use of knowledge, practice, mnemonics, large and small group activities, and games, Mapping the World by Heart seeks to inspire students to study -- and love -- geography.

Teaches students to draw -- entirely from memory -- detailed world maps including the names, borders, mountain ranges, rivers, and major cities of more than 190 countries.

Can get students excited about geography and encourages them to think globally.

Promotes positive interactions and collaboration, both in small group work and as a class.

Provides flexible lessons you can easily integrate into your existing curriculum.

Gives students a constructive goal to work towards all year long.

	I can't really comment on the overall outcome as we have only just begun using this course and we only do it a couple of times a week. However, my son is always keen to do it so that is exciting for me and he has a fresh interest in discovering where places are on the globe or in the atlas.
	Maria Tuckey, Co-op Member

	Although we are not very far into the lessons, I love the scope and sequence of this curriculum. The children are not intimated by the lesson requirements and I find preparation time is minimal. We enjoy this subject.
	Shannon, Co-op Member

	My children both really enjoy the Mapping the World By Heart Curriculum. We have found it is easy to dip in and out of and to use in a very individual way. My older son (aged 11) has followed every instruction and is now making maps to scale on his own. My younger son (aged 8) loves tracing the maps and then colouring in the countries. Both children know all the countries in the world and where they are, and in order of size. We are working at the moment on studying the individual countries. My children have been using this curricul...(more)

	I've enjoyed how useful the manual is. Suggestions make it easy to tailor for the different settings in which I teach. For middle school co-op, I used the intro hands on lessons, like the grapefruit lesson that shows why there are distortions in 2D maps that represent our 3D world of longitude and latitude. Materials helped me bring home ideas to new geography students AND challenge those classroom experts. I plan to use the entire manual extensively with my own high school children.
	Robbye, Co-op Member

	I love many of the ideas in this book, they have some interesting projects. The maps and the explanation of them are great. We haven't used much of it yet, but are incorporating bits and pieces of it as we go along. I love that there is no copyright on the maps so that I can make multiple copies and not worry about using the same map for multiple things.
	Kelli Gowan, Co-op Member

	I have just started using this program with my 12-year-old homeschooling son. We both have enjoyed the "appetizers" and are excited to start on the "entrees". The appetizers were short lessons that really taught a great deal about mapping. We are about to start Mapping the U.S. I am excited about this since this program teaches more than I ever learned in school. I am so happy that this program is available. With this program, you have suggestions for teaching and the tools to do it. I find, so far, that I like to incorporate other m...(more)

	In a global market, it's more important than ever to understand where countries are because our customers live in all these remote corners of the Earth. I had never thought of using lattitude and longitude degrees to pin the "corners" of countries and continents and then use certain creative mnemonics to remember shapes of borders, etc. My children especially like how they have to stare at the map for a while to see the mnemonic (like the US elf) but then all of a sudden they see it and they make the big "ohhhh" noise together...
	Ann Garcia, Co-op Member

	This is a GREAT program-so much fun because it includes a lot of hands-on activities, which my 10 year old loves. The challenge of eventually being able to map the world from memory is very exciting to her. The program has some nice flexibility to it, so it can be realistically altered for individual use without compromising the learning experience. It is a fun and engaging way to teach geography. I know this can be a dry experience for some kids, so this is a fun way to learn it. Very fun when paired with the Stack the Countries app, which ...(more)
	maria C, Co-op Member

	What a great resource! We are not doing the whole program right now, but we're using the maps (to copy), as well as several of the curriculum ideas. Well worth the purchase!!
	B Dicks, Co-op Member

	Mapping the World By Heart is a fantastic product! My son had to leave traditional school due to a medical problem. It was not until I started homeschooling that I realized he had virtually no knowledge of geography. I believe that you can't find your way in the world if you don't know where you are in the world. This program not only teaches the vital geography skills that I learned during my Catholic school upbringing, but it also adds new dimension to the old school memorization. The activities are challenging, fun and make an impact! ...(more)
