Unit 1 - Map Camp (8/25 - 9/16)
This 3 1/2 week unit is designed to consolidate mapping and general geography skills. We are creating a "learning atlas" in our interactive notebooks based upon the seven continents. This atlas will grow as we explore issues in depth during the year. This unit can be found on pages 14 - 27 of the interactive notebook. Students will return to these continent maps and the adjacent "thinking" pages throughout the year to add information, thoughts and observations.
