Quarterhouse 7 Poster Seven Continents Set, Social Studies Classroom Learning Materials for K-12 Students and Teachers, 12 x 18 Inches

These posters are great for teaching facts about each continent! They are bright, durable, laminated, and easy to display on our homeschool board. The only issue I have is that the Australian continent is labeled "Oceania." While Oceania is a recognized region, it is not officially a continent, as it includes a large body of water with many islands rather than a single landmass. This was a bit confusing since all the other posters were labeled with proper continent names. That said, it did lead to a great discussion about the difference between continents and regions, and we were able to correct the title easily. I still really like these posters, and we’ve used them often over the past couple of months to learn about the different continents!

These are great quality, lots of good information, and a wonderful homeschool tool. My only complaint and the reason for only 4 stars is that one of the sheets is labeled "Oceania" at the top. I'm familiar with the term, and I thought the info underneath the heading explained it very well, but the CONTINENT is Australia, not Oceania. The info explains that Oceania is a geographical region/area. Ok, but it's not a continent, so don't put it at the top as if it's the name of the continent. Any school program or google search results will list Australia as one of the 7 continents, not Oceania. I think this is a pretty huge mistake.

These geography posters are a classroom win! The maps are visually clear and detailed, making them great for engaging K-12 students in learning about continents. I'm confident their durable paper will hold up well to the wear and tear of classroom life, which is a big plus. At 12x18 inches, they’re a nice balance between informative and space-saving, though they might feel a bit small for larger rooms. If you’re a social studies teacher (elementary school; too juvenile for older students) looking to spruce up your walls with something both informative and appealing, you can't go wrong with these posters.

My 7 1/2 year old grandson is learning from these. They are fine as an introduction to the continents. From there, the child can delve into other resources to explore further. They are laminated and come rolled up. They are easiest to display if you have a corkboard or magnet board to hang them up.

These materials provide a great first lesson on the continents, but as a former teacher I prefer to use the term Australia. It's what is used in the standard curriculum. These are good for home use, however.
