Day Twenty (Monday)

Today I introduced an independent assignment: Geography in the News!
Please click here to access the assignment.
Sometime over the semester, you will present a current event in geography to the class. Use the handout as a guide for your presentation. Some of you may want to use powerpoint slides, or organize a class debate, or some other creative idea. I think this will be an interesting opportunity for our class to keep up with local, national, and global events!

Next, you filled in geologic terms from the glossary in your textbook. Please try to explain (in your own words) the difference between erosion and sediments. How are they related, and how are they different?

Finally, we watched the first 10 minutes of David Suzuki's Geologic Journeys: The Great Lakes. Click here to see a description of the show.
