Latitude/Longitude/Seasons
Today we will review the materials for the Latitude/Longitude/Season test, before we actually take the test during the Block time period.
Objectives: Separated into 3 groups, student will work cooperatively assisting team members to determine the correct answer to possible test questions.
We will start the class playing jeopardy as a review game.
The test will cover all the material we learned about Longitude and Latitude (including determining the the distance in miles between lines,figuring out scale, knowing the significant lines of Latitude and Long, etc) as well as Seasons (the dates of the seasons, the locations of direct and indirect rays of the sun and the impact that has on weather and daylight) and lastly Time Zones (the way time is determined, and how to add or subtract time based on the location of a city).
One of the sources of information for this test came from the Seasons ppt -

When students finish the test, they should continue to work on their Map Making Timeline, or the Navigators and Tools article.
