What is the GeoBowl? The GeoBowl is a geography quiz team competition for SCES 3rd, 4th and 5th graders. Students who register to enter the GeoBowl use a study guide to learn about this year’s continents – The Americas. Students will be assigned to grade level teams and they work together to prepare for the competition. On February 23 the teams will compete together to answer questions in a quiz competition. It is a great opportunity for students to learn about geography and work as part of a team.
The 2024 GeoBowl will be conducted in both French and English. French Immersion students will receive a French language study guide and all questions and answers will be in French.
How do I register my student? Please complete this Registration Form to sign up your 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade student. Please register by December 31.
Team assignments will be circulated in early January to everyone who registers.
What information about The Americas is included in the GeoBowl? Only information in the packet will be included in the GeoBowl quiz and all information in the study packet is fair game. The French GeoBowl will be conducted entirely in French. Soft and hard copy study guides will be available during in early January – please request hard copies in the registration form.
An answer key to the study guide will be circulated the week of February 5 to ensure students are studying the correct answers.
