Island Project

Wednesday September 28th
Students were assigned a Design Your Own Island Project today.  The assignment has two components. First, students must define define 29 geography terms related to landforms.  Students may use an online dictionary or a  book dictionary.  Students should also do their best to rewrite the definitions in their own words. This is due on or before Tuesday, October 11th.  Once students finish the definitions, they will be able to start creating/designing their island and incorporate the landforms.  I showed students island projects that were created by previous students in order for them to get an idea of how to proceed.  There was much enthusiasm for the assignment!  Students were given a rubric for this assignment.  Ask your child about their idea for their island.  We will have some time in school for this assignment but students should also be working on it at home.
