I expected yesterday’s assignment to take most students 2 class periods to finish. Today you need to finish and turn in the Climograph assignment.

After you turn it in you may visit class links, read a book, or work on homework from another class.

If you didn’t get your assignment from yesterday finished, finish that first and turn it in.

Today you are going to learn about Climographs. First you need to watch a video that I made. Go to the Video (V) Drive>Osborne>Climographs

Next watch this video: Go to the Video (V) Drive>Osborne>Computer Tutorials>Copying and Adding Shapes in Word

For your assignment download this document: Climograph Template   Answer the questions on the first Climograph. For the 2nd and 3rd Climograph (New York and Sacramento), you need to use the data from this document Climograph Data to create the chart for New York and Sacramento.

Whenever you finish save it and turn it in.

Save it as:       Hr-Last name-Last name-Climograph

In class today you are going to learn about different types of maps. You will use your online textbook. To visit the link, go to www.classzone.com  If you never input the activation code, you can get it off the board.

You will use pages A1-A7 to answer the questions on the following assignment: Maps  Answer each question using complete sentences!

Whenever you finish, save it:  hr-last name-last name-maps

Turn it in.

The substitute teacher also has my permission to take off points for off task behavior. Make sure you are using your time wisely.

Many of you are still working on step 2, which is creating the storyboard. Finish step 2 and turn it in. Make sure you only use open source pictures for your assignment or you will lose points. Use the link that I provided in the previous 2 entries.

After you finish step 2, begin working on your poster. You need to turn your storyboard into me first. Then come and ask me for a sheet of posterboard. Write your name on it somewhere. You may want to write it small in a corner in case you mess up and have to use both sides. Step 3 will likely take you 2-3 class periods if you do it correctly. Remember that you are being graded for neatness on this.
