3/29 MasterChef Presentations

Whenever you need help, please ask for it.

Please write your homework in your assignment book.
Please review the goal and agenda for the day (posted in the classroom).

Today in class you will 

• begin to understand how climate, physical features, and natural resources influence settlement and economics in  the Andes Mountains.
• identify main ideas from multiple presentations.

Why?

• To notice patterns in the world.
• To better understand how people adapt to living in a mountainous region.
• To better understand the connection between geography and people.

1.  With another near you, discuss - in your own words - why you are in social studies today (see above). 2 minutes

NOTE: Whenever you are waiting for Mr.d'E or others so you can complete a next step, appropriately comment on other students blogs: Give a compliment; respond to something specific (what did it make you think, do you agree/disagree - why), extend the conversation (add a relevant question; share what other ideas came to your mind as you read the post); do NOT critique their writing/thoughts.

2.  The person who created and shared the slide presentation yesterday should pull up the slide presentation.  1 minutes

3.  Class share   25 minutes

4.  Give one / get one  8 minutes

5.  Reflection  15 minutes

Parents: Don't Ask Your Child, "What Did You Do in School Today?"

Instead, you could ask your child the following: 

• Where are the Andes Mountains?
• Describe what the vertical climate zone of the Andes.
• What was the most important or interesting thing you learned?
