I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend. This week we will have our Five Themes of Geography test on Tuesday. We will also issue your States and Canada book on Tuesday. We are very fortunate to be able to go to the Media Center for two days this week. We will overview Canada and do several activities online. I will put on the sites after we go to the center for review.
