Today we got our text books and then did an activity in pairs where we added the political boundaries to an outline map of northern North America from memory. I introduced the idea of meta-cognition and explained that how we think is often more important than what we think. For homework, I asked that you take a second outline map and add the physiographic regions of Canada. We discussed ways to accommodate for the possibility that there are differences in the maps on the Internet. Please come with your completed maps to Friday's class.
Thanks for your positive energy today.
