Class Description
Africa, Southwest Asia (Middle East), and Southern and Eastern Asia Georgia Performance Standards
Seventh grade is the second year of a two year World Area Studies course.
Seventh grade students study Africa and Asia. The goal of this two year course
is to acquaint middle school students with the world in which they live. The
geography domain includes both physical and human geography. The intent of the
geography domain is for students to begin to grasp the importance geography
plays in their everyday lives. The government/civics domain focuses on selected
types of government found in the various areas in order to help students begin
to understand the variety of governments in the world. The economics domain
builds on the K-5 economics; however, the focus shifts from the United States to
how other countries answer the basic questions of economics. The history domain
focuses primarily on significant events in each region from the twentieth and
twenty-first centuries.
