Geospatial Technologies

A feature of the GoNorth! Curriculum and Activity Guide is the strong integration of geospatial technologies (GT).

If you are not familiar with geospatial technologies such as Goggle Earth and GIS, you will find helpful movies on how to use these programs in the Techie Tucker section. We encourage you to use these lessons in your classroom as they are one more way to get students excited about learning!

Bound copy to your door!

Our goal is to provide you with detailed directions to help you download the curriculum with success! If you do not want to download and print the curriculum, it is possible to order a bound copy of the curriculum from the Polar Husky store. You pay only copying and shipping costs and it will be sent to your school. Note however that this is only available in black and white copy. But consider that you can supplement your bound copy with viewing online in color using the 'view as a book' feature.

2004, 2006 and 2007 CAAGS are each available as one large book. The 2008, 2009 and 2010 CAAGs, due to their size, are available for purchase as individual modules.
