I hope everyone had a restful weekend.
Essential Question: How would you apply your knowledge of latitude and longitude to given locations?
This week we will concentrate on longitude and latitude. There is a quiz on Thursday. On Tuesday and Wednesday, we will cover longitude and latitude. Last year, we were tracking Hurricane Katrina. Using what we learned, we were able to have a better understanding of the storm's track and its implications. Thankfully, we can work on a more pleasant assignment this year.
