GEO Bee

Not Monday, but the next Monday fifth graders will participate in the Geo Bee preliminary rounds. The Geo Bee offers fourth and fifth graders the opportunity to participate in a bee setting.

If fifth graders are motivated to study for the bee at home, this is a great opportunity for them to familiarize themselves with world and U.S. geography. The breadth and specificity of the questions does make this a difficult bee to study for, but playing geography games at home would be a helpful way to prepare. Middle school students are preparing by taking daily geography quizzes.
