The goal was for students to create their own 3-6 SDG's about goals they wanted to reach by the time they graduated high school. These students were apart of a grade 9 geography class, this activity helped students visualize the importance of some goals and their timelines. ]]> 2023-10-02 13:28:23 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728572306 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728573449 2023-10-02 13:28:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728573449 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728579839 2023-10-02 13:32:36 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728579839 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728584718 Last year during my first practicum, I was in a grade 9 geography class. Students had to study for an upcoming quiz and I wanted them to be able to enjoy studying. Therefore, I hid definitions of geographic terms all around the room and had students match them to the terms I gave them. This was a fun and competitive way for students to memorize terminology. ]]> 2023-10-02 13:35:10 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728584718 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728587744 2023-10-02 13:36:41 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728587744 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728601140 2023-10-02 13:43:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728601140 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728602162 2023-10-02 13:43:45 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728602162 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728607023 Creating and designing a map doesn't have to be boring! Ask students to create a map of their own personal imaginary world! This world can contain anything they want and can resemble anything! While ensuring students are gaining curricular knowledge of map dimensions, they can work their imagination to their advantage!]]> 2023-10-02 13:46:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728607023 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728612742 Have students create a map of the school for someone who's never been there! The goal is to help the supply teacher find her coffee! Get creative all while ensuring a person unfamiliar with the school will be able to read your map and get to the coffee the fastest! ]]> 2023-10-02 13:48:45 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728612742 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728617297 Before attempting this activity, students will have had to work with maps in the past and understand their vital components. To ensure they know this information, ask students to list things often found on a map and display them on the chalkboard/whiteboard as students give you the answers! ]]> 2023-10-02 13:51:09 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728617297 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728623360 I always start my days with a minds-on game that gets students visualizing country locations. This game gives the students the shape of a country, and it is up to them to use the resources in the classroom (maps, phones, google etc.) to find out what country it is. ]]> 2023-10-02 13:54:28 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728623360 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728636014 Similar to the lessons done in Chapter 3: Curiosity and Literacy, I would love to have a GIS specialist or cartographer come into my class as a special guest. This would give students the opportunity to view a wide variety of maps and expand their curiosity about the topic. This could also be applied to other topics within geography and contain additional guests such as climate activists, environmental planners, local farmers or an explorer! ]]> 2023-10-02 14:01:09 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728636014 cassireeves99 https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728642591 2023-10-02 14:04:40 UTC https://padlet.com/cassireeves99/fn99uvfd8mvdhhmb/wish/2728642591
