I don’t know about you, but I think geography is kinda’ hard to teach. Maybe it’s because I don’t naturally think of pictures; I cannot remember a map no matter how hard I study it. I think in words, so I could memorize some facts about a place but have no idea where that stuff is.
So I invited Maggie Hogan to the show to see if she could help. And she did. Maggie Hogan is an author, homeschooling veteran, world traveler, and founder of Bright Ideas Press.
