SS Week of Aug. 26

Essential Question: How does where you live influence how you live?

On Monday we will celebrate the winners of the geography challenge in each class period.  It was fun to watch many of the teams work together to earn as many points as possible and to encourage one another along the way.  The chapter 1 test will take place on Tuesday.  Be sure to complete the tutorial and study!  Students will need to know the material in Ch. 1 as well as be able to correctly spell and identify all of the continents and oceans.  The rest of the week we'll dig further into geography terms and looking at maps.
