MONDAY: Today students worked on completing the Geography Review. This week we have some awesome online lessons about longitude/latitude, the Five Themes of Geography, mapping and other geography adventures. The idea is to delve deeply and explore richly!

Parents, PLEASE email me if you have not done so at glenda.glenn@cobbk12.org I want to add you to my GIA Parent Group List!

TUESDAY: We discussed the Geography Review and reviewed the MAP AND ATLAS information on our blog. Students were introduced to the number of geography games on the blog for review.

WEDNESDAY: Today was DEAR, Drop Everything and READ! Students read for half an hour, then we explored Longitude and Latitude via our blog and new Promethean board.

THURSDAY: We'll also review FIVE THEME OF GEOGRAPHY via a PowerPoint and links on our blog. Students will work in groups to identify over sixty landform terms as an additional review. Students will finish for homework, using the glossary in their textbook.

FRIDAY: We'll discuss INTELLIGENT behaviors as practiced in the GIA and study the concept of CULTURAL GEOGRAPHY. Today students will be introduced to their ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS which accompany every unit of study as a homework piece and anchor activity.

We're planning to take a Geography review Test next Wednesday and then begin our study of the Geography of Southeast Asia!

Don't forget our 7th Grade Open House on Tuesday,August 29!
