Summary
These colorful workbooks do much more than teach students how to read maps; they also teach geography in a deeper and more meaningful way.Explore God’s world—from the banks of the Nile River to the peaks of the Himalayas with the new Geography Skills 3 for Young Catholics: The Ancient and Modern World, the final link in Seton’s Elementary Geography Series.
Through colorful maps, engaging activities, and thought-provoking questions, students discover how geography has shaped both human history and everyday life.
A Series Now Complete
The release of Geography Skills 3 is an important milestone for Seton Home Study School: the completion of our Geography Skills for Young Catholics series for the elementary grades.
For many years, the secular Maps, Charts, and Graphs series was one of Seton’s most popular supplemental programs. Families appreciated its practical approach to teaching map skills. When those books went out of print, we decided not to simply to replace them, but to build something even better.
An Ambitious Goal Fulfilled
The goal was ambitious: preserve the strongest features of the original series while creating a distinctly Catholic geography program with richer content, stronger instruction, and a broader understanding of God’s world.
The result is Geography Skills for Young Catholics.
More Than Map Skills
These colorful workbooks do much more than teach students how to read maps. While map-reading remains a core skill, students also learn geography in a deeper and more meaningful way.
They study countries, continents, regions, cultures, landforms, and the relationships between people and the places they inhabit.
Throughout the series, Catholic themes help students view the world through the lens of faith and appreciate the diversity and beauty of God’s creation.
We are especially proud of what our Curriculum Development team has accomplished. With the publication of Geography Skills 3, they have completed a series that is engaging, academically strong, visually appealing, and authentically Catholic.
Mission accomplished—and we think Seton families will agree that the result is worth the journey.
