National Geographic Education’s website continues to evolve and it no longer has the “beta” label attached to it. One of the resources that I spotted on the site this morning is about Common Core standards. National Geographic and the Common Core is a small collection of web and print materials from National Geographic that can be used in ELA lessons aligned to Common Core standards. There isn’t a ton of depth to the collections and I think that National Geographic could certainly add a lot more of their resources to the collections, but it’s a good starting place if you’re looking to bring some geography into your ELA lessons.
