9/8

Monday:
6th grade: We went over the difference between a hill & a mountain (a mountain is 1,000 feet or higher; a hill is lower than 1,000 feet); then we began working on our illustrated geography dictionaries. There will be a quiz on the terms next week. No homework today.

7th grade: We began working on our theme park maps (using our theme park symbol homework from last week as the key). Before creating our own maps we looked at several real parks' maps online.
Carowinds then go to "Plan A Visit," then "Park Map."
Hershey Park (in Pennsylvania) and click on "Map."
Six Flags then choose a park (there are 17!).
Walt Disney World then click on "Parks," then select the park you want, click on "Park Info & Map," and then "View Park Map."
Busch Gardens then select your park, then "Park Info and Events" then "Park Map."

Homework: Study side 1 of Geography terms page (handed out today). Study those terms, especially the ones you don't know well and those with similar definitions.
