Abstract	This instructional package, consisting of a text and 13 transparencies, is designed for high school classrooms. The five lessons in the instructional package relate to the "Five Themes of Geography" (Location, Place, Human-Environment Interaction, Movement, and Region) as promoted by the National Geographic Society. The lessons are designed to support the teaching of world geography and world history courses. Lesson topics are: (1) "Location of Germany on the Earth's Surface" (two lessons); (2) "Physical and Human Characteristics of Germany" (four lessons); (3) "Interaction of the German People and Their Environment" (four lessons); (4) "Cultural Diversity in Germany" (two lessons); and (5) "German Unification and Regional Changes" (seven lessons). Each topic states objectives; lists materials and resources; offers an overview; and provides maps and worksheets for student activities. (BT)
