Neal Nichols, Geography Extraordinaire

Cape Cod artist Neal Nichols carries the world in his head and he brought it to Steward School today!  For years, Neal has devoted his life to world travel. In 1992, his travels, combined with his artistic abilities and photographic memory, led to the creation of The Geography Gameshow. This is an interactive learning experience which captivated our students today!

With a marker, some paper, and a few souvenirs from his world travels, Nichols engaged in a whirlwind game show demonstration by drawing maps of the world, the US and the state of Massachusetts in a few moments from memory and then quizzing the students on the locations of various countries, cities, and geographical features.
