Oh, the Places You'll Go

"Oh, the Places You'll Go" isn't just a famous Dr. Seuss book. It's also the name of your first REAL post that you will get points for. Week #2: Time for the real thing. We are going to brush up on our geography skills this week, with a focus on different types of maps, map elements, and physical features. We need these skills as we move throughout the Ancient world because we will be looking at maps, looking at physical features, and looking at borders quite often. So, for our mini-geography unit, we are going to talk about "geography" in  your own life. So, the moment is here. Your first real task. See below.
TASK: 
1. Where were you born?
2. Tell me about one cool places you have visited in your life. 
3. Tell me about one cool place that you WANT to visit but havn't yet. 
4. Tell me where you want to live when you grow up. 

POINTS: 20
DUE DATE: Friday, August 31st at midnight.

That is it. Simple task, huh? Yes, it is but you have to remember to do it!!! The number one reason why kids don't do blog assignments is that they forget! So write it down and get it taken care of.
