GEOGRAPHY:
Well hello! So, today in geography, we continued with our Essential Question: "How does geography affect culture & identity?" To do this, we finished looking at the PowerPoint of our "7 cultures" (see slides below) and we discussed the projects that we will begin tomorrow. You will choose only 1 out of a list of 10 projects choices. These projects are each about a different type of people somewhere in the world. Using the internet, you will research and create a small project on PowerPoint to show how the geography where these people live has made them who they are--Unique!
After this, we went to the Media Center and picked up our geography textbooks to take home.
WORLD HISTORY:
Very niiiiice! So, today in world history, we started with our "Vocabulary Windows" to define the following 3 terms: Paleolithic People, Neolithic Revolution, and Neolithic People.
After this, we discussed and went over the instructions for our upcoming "Create a Civilization" Project (which we will start tomorrow.) See slides below for instructions/examples.
