"Thinking Spatially Using GIS" is a four-module book that provides grade 3-6 instructors with activities and information that will help students improve their understanding of geography and geographic information systems (GIS). The lessons foster an understanding of GIS regardless of the ability to access computers.Early exposure to geography, spatial thinking, and GIS helps students learn more about the world around them. With this first volume in the "Our World GIS Education" series, teachers and students use geographic tools - maps, geographic data, and GIS - to progress from a basic understanding of spatial concepts toward recognizing patterns and analyzing map trends. Students reinforce and improve their basic map- reading skills and continue to sharpen those skills as the book prompts them to analyze and think critically about the data.
