The six essential elements of the National Geography Standards—“The World in Spatial Terms,” “Places and Regions,” “Physical Systems,” “Human Systems,” “Environment and Society,” and the “Uses of Geography”—provide a means to organize an integrated approach to environmental learning that is needed if our students are to understand the full range of issues regarding the environment. Your local river offers an exciting real-life arena in which these issues and concepts can be learned. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
