Stop on in and participate in old school activities for AP Human Geography students. These fun, engaging, comprehensive activities are designed to immerse students in the Human Geography content without being on their screen! (We love tech, but we also know that there is a place to get students away from it!). Students work in groups “sorting” out terms, concepts and data. Throughout the process students will be actively involved in categorizing and organizing information based on thematic connections, spatial relationships, and analytical frameworks inherent in human geography. These activities aim to promote collaboration, communication, and active engagement among students as they work together to identify patterns, make connections, and draw conclusions about the diverse ways in which human societies interact with their environments across the globe.
