One takes flying lessons, another is a breath-hold free diver. Some are budding musicians, others enjoy martial arts. One is coming from Bahrain, another from Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. But all have one thing in common—astounding geography skills that have earned them a spot at the 18th annual National Geographic Bee. The finalists, all winners of their state-level geographic bees, have triumphed over a field of nearly 5 million students to earn a place in the national championships..

These videos are great study tools for future GeoBee contestants. They give students questions to practice with, as well as a sense of what the competition is like.
