Continued to collect the N Africa and SW Asia Mapping Project for in-person students in-class conferences in class. If they were unfinished they were encouraged to use the time to complete them and turn their maps in to me at the conference period between 3:15 and 4:00 pm. Otherwise they could join the digital students in turning a picture of their project in by 11:59 Friday, Jan. 8th  at the link below on the HUB.

Digital students will submit their maps by taking a picture of their paper copy and turning it in to the HUB (see link below). You have till 11:59 Friday, Jan. 8th  at the link below on the HUB. If you need help with how to take a picture of your map and create a file from it, see the Youtube video at bottom.

I will ask you for your missing project for two more class meetings. After that, the assignment is closed. Because it is late, understand that you can only earn mastery credit for you project, in line with Tanglewood procedures.

Some students were also asked to complete the Map Standards Quiz in Active Classroom.

1) Complete your definition and picture on page 50, for the term, Agricultural Revolution (see example above).
2) Complete the lesson about Agricultural Revolution at Active Classroom (see link above).
