Houghton Mifflin Harcourt's World Geography, Texas Edition © 2016 is written to align with the Grade 9 TEKS and ELPS to help give students comprehensive coverage of the curriculum and to prepare them for the end-of-course assessment. It combines a highly visual approach with primary sources to help all students understand world geography and make global connections. Clearly organized between physical geography, human geography, and today's issues, it motivates students to explore current geographic issues to show the relevance of geography to current events.
The text's narrative carefully integrates literacy instruction and scaffolds reading support throughout. The Teacher's Edition provides point-of-use differentiating instruction activities for English language learners, learners having difficulty with the content, and advanced learners.
