The latest edition of the guide book every Bee contestant needs to compete with confidence is here. The National Geographic Bee Official Study Guide will help kids in grades four through eight prepare for the Society’s prestigious annual geography competition. Featuring maps, photos, graphs, and a variety of questions actually used in past Bees, plus an extensive resource section, this guide not only reviews geographic facts but also helps readers recognize themes, identify clues that lead to correct answers, and understand how geographers think. In the Third Edition all statistics have been revised to reflect the most up-to-date figures. New question rounds have been added along with new tips on how to study from previous Bee winners. Resources have been fully reviewed to ensure the most current information about all things geographic. This completely revised edition of our authoritative study guide will help geography students prepare to compete for college scholarships totaling $50,000 in the annual National Geographic Bee. With informative text and a user-friendly layout, the Study Guide is the ultimate expert resource for sharpening geography skills. This excellent guide, which provides facts and explains the concepts behind geography, is the only source book officially sanctioned by the National Geographic Bee. Your first question is easy: Do you have the latest edition of this essential geography resource on your shelf?Children's LiteratureThis fun and inspiring third edition of the study guide for the National Geographic Bee should be in the classroom of all students from fourth to eighth grade. It has long been known that American students (and adults) are deficient in their geographic knowledge. In an ever changing political world, "understanding people and environments" has never been more important. Creating enthusiasm for the subject of geography is up to parents and teachers, and participating in the National Bee is one way schools can do it. The 2007 winner of the Bee begins with an enthusiastic introduction about what participating has meant to her. The following six chapters define geography beyond just a description of places, list the requirements for schools and individuals to participate in the Bee, provide study tips and clues for understanding the questions with plenty of examples, provide tips from previous winners, and list and explain resources valuable for acquiring knowledge. The tone is upbeat and encouraging. All that is needed is an adult to take the lead. Reviewer: Meredith Kiger, Ph.D.
