World Geography is a once a week, year-long, supplemental course with an emphasis on map and memory work. The course will walk students around the entire globe for a greater understanding, appreciation, and knowledge of the places they study in history and hear about in current events. We will highlight physical and political geography and briefly overview each region's culture and history. Students will become familiar with the major countries, cities, and physical features of each region.
Live class time will include trivia games, memory work and review, discussion on the region of the week, student presentations, and guided map work. Students will present once during each semester. They will be encouraged to find a personal connection to the area we studied whether that be through personal travel, ancestry, family, friends, or interest. Outside of class time, there will be 2-3 assignments each week: upload a map, read and take notes, and take a weekly quiz.
Fall semester will cover the Americas, Europe, and Africa. Spring Semester will cover the Middle East, Asia, Oceania, and Antarctica.
Required Materials: Books and supplies are not included in the purchase of the course. These resources are listed to help inform your decision-making as you make course selections and build your course schedule. Please reach out to the instructor if you have any questions about materials.
Tisha Frost has been teaching in a variety of settings over the last 20 years after following one of the best pieces of advice she was ever given, “Be who God created you to be and you will set the world on fire” - St. Catherine of Siena. This inspired her to study both history and theology during her undergraduate years. She obtained a B.A. in American Studies, with a minor in Theology from the University of Notre Dame. She also holds a Master of Education from the University of Notre Dame, specializing in Middle School and High School Social Studies. Through her experiences of teaching many students, including her own children, she has seen the need for restful education that is focused on the true, good, and beautiful.
Tisha resides in Northern Minnesota with her husband and seven children. When she has a moment to herself, she enjoys children’s literature, British mysteries, good movies, and baking.
