We have moved on from our introduction to geography and have started our tour around the world that will be the focus for the rest of the school year. Our first stop on our tour is Canada. Last Thursday, we had our resident expert on the topic, Mr. Schiemann, come in and discuss with the 7th graders the differences between Canada and the United States. These differences ranged from government to money to flavors of potato chip!
Today, the 7th graders took a map quiz on the Canadian provinces. We will be taking map quizzes on each region of the world as we study it. Next, we will begin looking at several aspects of life in the United States, including urban sprawl and national parks.
