SS+21+Sept


 * //UPDATED!!!....Due to technical errors that I am trying to get fixed up, we cannot do the Google Earth activity. Therefore we will be continuing with our mini-unit on the Planet in Peril.

Your discussion comment on Planet in Peril is now LATE! I will accept any late entries until 8 pm tonight. If you need to work on this at home this evening, click here. This is worth an easy 10 marks. Anything past 8pm will receive 0.

We will be watching the first part of Al Gore's movie 'An Inconvenient Truth'. First I would like you to brainstorm, at your table, to find out what you know about the following questions:

1. What is global warming? 2. What causes global warming? 3. Who is [|Al Gore] and why would people listen to him?

We'll move on to Mapping early next week.

Welcome to your next unit in Social Studies ... Mmmmmapping!

When you have completed this, I would like you to click [|here], then click on the 'Download GoogleEarth' button on the right.

Check out the new addition to Google Earth ... Google Sky!
