Five Themes of Geography- Australia
The last 2 weeks we have been looking at Australia from the viewpoint of the Five Themes of Geography. Students have done several readings and will be responsible for completing a Graphic Organizer summarizing the information covered in our readings about Australia. The Graphic Organizer and the rubric associated with it is posted to Google Classroom. The Graphic Organizer will be summative and will be due at the end of the week.
BIG IDEA- The consequences of Distance
This week we are continuing to look at Australia and will look at some of the consequences of distance. Several lessons will be posted to Google Classroom as we explore how Australia’s distance to the rest of the world has affected them in several different ways. We will have a short test on this information next week prior to Spring Break.
MAP CHECK 6- Physical Features of Australia
This week we will also be introducing the practice assignment for Map Check 6. The assignment is posted to Google Classroom for all classes and will be assessed at the end of next week before Spring Break.
