Socials 8-1/8-2: Reconnecting with geography

Today we took a step back from our study of history and reconnected with our work at the beginning of the year.  I was pleased with how much you remembered about the globe.  Today we discussed meta-cognition (thinking about how we think) and tried to understand why things are the way they are. In 8-1 we even turned out the lights and used a flashlight to "experience" the seasons in an attempt to understand why there are equinoxes and radical solstices in the upper and lower latitudes.  Good work - no  homework.
