Globes Needed for Third Grade

One of the focus subjects for the third grade at Trinity is learning about geography and the physical features of the world God made. We frequently use globes in our classroom for hands-on learning.

The globes we currently own have begun to show their age. Many of them are outdated, falling apart, peeling or are hard to read. The third-grade classroom is in need of gently used or new globes. I have included an Amazon link below if you would be able to help our classroom learning by purchasing a globe for the 3rd-grade students to enhance their studies in geography.
