DIRECTIONS

If you are ever waiting for a direction, please use PlaceSpotting by students, PlaceSpotting , Google A Day, or this Google Maps Scavenger Hunt or create a meme for one of our social studies topics from the year. (Don't search for the question or use a Google A Day answer site.)
1.  Discuss with someone near you what you will be doing in class today and why (see above).       1 minute
2. Read all of this direction first: Visit the site linked here, go through the guide and ask me questions to orient yourself, choose several places (one at a time) that would have a different standard of living, and put information into the graphic organizer linked here (Make sure you move it into your social studies folder by clicking the folder icon next to the docs' name.)                  30 minutes

3. Wait for whole class discussion            10 MINUTES

Parents: Instead of Asking Your Child, 
"What Did You Do in School Today?"
Ask them.......
  • What is standard of living?
  • What do high, medium, and low standard of livings look like?
