Love this bunch!
What a superb second week! We have started out this week learning how to find longitude and latitude. On Tuesday, cartographers created maps for geographers to search for gold! We learned that each of these professions must use absolute location to find an exact location, especially when one is searching for gold! Today my class will be sharing their setting stories. After switching with a partner, students created a story from their partner's setting! I am excited to see how creative each one was! Check out posts later next week as I plan on allowing students to post a blog!

G'day Ms White and students,
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining the student blogging challenge beginning on 21st September 2010. I hope you enjoy the activities and try as many as you can. Remember to visit the other classes and students who are on two pages on the challenge blog.
I wonder if you can find the latitude and longitude for some famous gold mining towns in Australia: Ballarat, Kalgoorlie, Sofala and Ophir.
PS Might be good to have Name/URL profile as an option when students leave comments on your blog.
the map was so fun
