Interacting with the Environment - Europe

Bellwork: Interpret the bargraph on pg. 281 of your textbook and answer the three questions under the graph.

Before beginning a new section we briefly reviewed yesterday's lesson and upcoming deadlines. Please remember your postcard activity is due on Tuesday and we will have a map quiz on Wednesday (Dec. 7) along with an open-note quiz - so be prepared!

We completed and discussed a map practice handout. Also, a list of possible terms was given for your map quiz.

We took notes along with a powerpoint lesson on specific European countries and the ways in which they have adapted or changed their environments. We also discussed some of the problems that have occurred because of these envrironmental modifications and their possible solutions.

We took a few minutes to complete a Writing prompt in our daily logs. We compared/contrasted the Netherlands and Venice, Italy's adaptations and the consequences.

We spent the rest of class researching and working on our Postcard Activities.

Enjoy your weekend! See you in class on Monday!
