Current Unit of Study

We are currently studying Geography.

In order to better understand the various countries the students will be studying this year, as well as how people interact with their environment, we will be doing some basic review of geographic terms as well as studying the Five Themes of Geogrpahy: Location, Place, Interaction, Movement and Region.
