Masters of the Map

Today in class, we began with a MAP MASTER activity (page 5) as our question of the day. Students needed to analyze a map titled: The Migration of Early Humans. We specifically talked about the importance of the map title, map key, and any captions that accompany the map. The title helps you to see what it is you are looking at, the key helps you to determine the meaning of symbols and colors, and the caption gives you a little bit of background.

Quizzes were returned to students today and we discussed the format for our vocabulary assignments.
