Secondary school may be daunting for many secondary one students. For one thing, they now have to take a lot more subjects as compared to primary school. Under Humanities, students will have to take subjects such as Geography, which is a content-heavy subject that requires students to have specific skills such as map reading and data analysis.
While this may sound like a lot, students can find the additional revision and practice they need in Ace Your Secondary 1 Geography by Maria Nile. This book is an excellent resource for students who are new to Geography and need a helping hand to ease them into the subject. The notes and practices within aim to equip students with content knowledge and geographical skills in order for them to excel in the subject.
About the book
This book can be used either in the classroom or at home for self-revision. Below are several components which can be found in the book:
Explanatory notes are highlighted for effective revision whenever needed. This provides a useful guide for students to take note of important pointers before an exam.

This book also contains reflection prompts. These encourages students to engage in creative and critical thinking and to reflect on the implications of geography on their everyday lives. This makes learning concepts more engaging and effective.
For immediate application of the skills learnt, practice questions are included within the chapters so that students will be able to test their knowledge. A final assessment is included as well.
