Gr. 7 Social Studies: November

Presentations on a natural wonder of the world has been completed by all of the students.

The students have learned about climate zones, and vegetation zones and are now taking the information about the physical world and applying it to a brochure assignment.

Travel Brochure Assignment:

Students have chosen a place in the world to focus on for this assignment. They are designing a travel brochure to promote a natural adventure expedition in a selected region of the world that will attract an outdoor enthusiast. The students are first researching and completing an information organizer which includes geographic details about their chosen region that they have discovered. Once they have gathered the information they are illustrating what they have learned by creating a brochure that includes a map, images, geographic information, time zones, interesting facts and bibliography. 
The class has been working on this during class time. They will have up to Dec.6 to work on it at school and then it will be homework if not completed after that class.

Quiz: A quiz on the physical world :continents, oceans, longitude, latitude, equator, prime meridian, international date line/ time zones, climate zone, and vegetation is on Nov. 29.
