Would you like your child to learn the locations of the world's countries and begin to develop an understanding of our complex world? The Passport Geography Club at Redmond Elementary PTSA is for 1st through 5th grade students that provides a foundation in global literacy and inspires curiosity about Earth's interesting geography. Our goal is to help students explore and learn some, or all, of the world's countries as well as major geographic features such as continents, oceans, deserts and mountain ranges.
Register here. Registration closes Sep 30 2026 at 11.45 pm.
In this program, students will:
1. Receive study map printouts (from October till May) in the welcome packet.
2. Start with your level to study.
3. Participate in the online passport check.
The level selected at registration is the level for which you will receive a quiz link every month to registered email on the day of the Passport Check.
If you decide to change the selected level at later time, please write to us at passportclub@redmondelptsa.
Please note: Once you select a level you will receive a quiz link for that level every month throughout the school year. Link will be sent out to the parent's email the day of the quiz . Quiz will be open for one week . You can check the website for the dates .
Students will get one attempt to take the test online so make sure you enter the correct names and the level on the online quiz form. This step is called “Passport Check”. Students are asked to identify the countries on the map for the level they have selected that month. A student must pass each level before moving on to the next one.

Parents should help their child to choose an appropriate level, yet challenging level of study. As students progressively increase their level, they build on prior knowledge and continue to learn more countries.
This is an introductory level for any student who wants to focus on 5 countries per month. Students will learn a total of 40 countries by year’s end.
This intermediate level involves 10 countries per month. Level two teaches the location of 80 countries plus the seven continents and three great oceans.
This advanced intermediate level involves 15 countries per month (except September and December) or 115 countries by year’s end. It includes the lesser known countries and island groupings.
At this expert level, students will have become familiar with all the world countries by the end of the school year. 25 countries will be studied each month (except in September and December). In addition, they will learn about the continents, oceans, seas, bays, gulfs, Oceania, the equator and the prime meridian.
This is the highest level. It is the level where they really start to explore what they have learned. Students learn the capitals of all the major countries learned in level one and memorize deserts and mountain ranges.
