Today is our first time using the blog this year. We just took our first Science CBA over Physical Science content and today we will begin our unit on Earth Science. Today you made vocabulary cards for the following words:
72. Model- something that represents something else
73. Boundary- a limit or border of an area or region
74. Structure- something built by people, like a road or a building
75. Map- a drawing of an area, usually as though you were looking down on it
76. Cartographer- a person who makes maps
77. Grid- a network of vertical and horizontal lines that form squares on a map
78. Symbol- a color, shape or texture used on a map to represent something else; like a road
79. Key- an explanation of any symbols used on a map
Tomorrow in class, we will become cartographers and create a map of the school. For today's blog entry I'd like you to write a short paragraph, describing what you think we will be doing tomorrow. In your paragraph you will need to make sure to include all eight of our new vocabulary words, make them bold or italic to make them stand out when I am grading your entries!! Remember, no names, only your classroom number. She the first comment as an example...
Have fun!!!
