APGEO students,
Monday's homework: please read and answer the questions on the last three pages of the basic geography/map skills packet that you started yesterday. Take advantage of the light homework load to study for your North America map/locational geography quiz. If you are having trouble opening the map website, try opening it on a different browser (try Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, or Google Chrome). Also, look through the section of maps covering North America in your atlas. Study the different maps carefully; think about what the purpose of each map is and what it can teach you about the different regions of the United States and Canada.
On Monday, we will take notes on key concepts and vocabulary for the first unit of AP preparation ("Geography and its methods"). We will take the North America quiz on Friday.
All of you are doing great work so far. Let me know if you are feeling lost or do not understand something we have covered or something about the course.
DO NOW for Friday, 8/27:
Do maps matter? What purpose do you think different types of map serve? What are some examples of things you might be able to learn by reading different maps, or things you might be able to teach/prove/demonstrate by making or using a map?
