Tuesday, February 2nd! Ground Hog Day!

The Geography test is officially moved to Thursday! Students practiced with a blank map filling in the states and capitals. Next, they watched a short video about Ken Burn's latest series - National Parks - America's Best Idea. 

Here is the link: http://www.pbs.org/nationalparks/watch-video/#872

Students also composed an essay after watching the video clip!

If you liked that clip check out this other one from a guy who spent 3 months trekking the Brooks Range. That's northern Alaska, y'all!
