    This is an amazing website. There are engaging and interactive lessons and games for students of differing abilities. This would be a great site for my classroom of students with special needs who need some exposure to world geography but in a simplified and engaging manner.

    Not only can this site be used as a whole class lesson but children can access independently with different skill levels.

    I also enjoy having the various games and the various levels. This would be great for students who finish their work and can practice various geographic skills!
