Tuesday, September 3rd - Lesson on how to use the scale on a map to find the distance between two different places.
Wednesday, September 4th - Lesson on climate zones and latitude lines and also time zones. The students took a "walk" through each climate zone and learned that the main factor that determines a location's climate is its latitude. There are many other factors that affect climate, but a location's latitude is what we called the "X" factor or main factor. A picture is included of the different climate zones. We also discussed time zones. If students have relatives in different time zones, discussing the difference in time would be a great way to review this concept.
Climate Zones: Blue - Arctic / Polar Zone, Green - Temperate Zone, Orange - Tropical Zone |
Friday, September 6th - Last review of four types of maps definitions. Students had to write the definitions and check their notes to see how well they did. Students worked on their "One Last Vacation" project and unit vocabulary.
Students, enjoyed the week and I am looking forward to seeing you step it up on your test on Tuesday. Can't wait to see the growth from your pretest.
