Build A Bundle for Georgianne B

By Geography & Math Made Easy

Georgianne, thank you for your purchase and interest in these high-level, fun learning activities. I hope this saves you much time in the planning process. There is always some prep for the lessons, but most everything is done for you: printable (not worksheets; they are printable the students use to interact ), introduction, list of materials needed, objectives, process, closure, etc.

Once you open the zip file, you will see all the lessons. Some are PDFs and others are zip files that you must open up to obtain all the parts to the lesson. i.e Push and Pull Factors is a zip file. Once opened, you will be able to access the Powerpoint, Pdf Lesson, etc. This is a very larger file, so it make take some time to download. If you have any questions or issues downloading, I sent you my email in the Question response.

Once you use these in your classroom, please take the time to provide feedback.
