The PLAN for today/this weekend

Today in class, and over the weekend, please work on creating a map. Your map will illustrate your topic in some way. I want you to be creative, and you may use either Paint or paper/colors. I would prefer that you use paper (I can scan them in when it's time to put your websites online) but you have that choice.

Please contact me if you need ideas about what to put on your map. Your map must include:

1. Color-coding of some sort
2. A key
3. A compass rose
4. Labeling of important landmarks (states, rivers, etc)

I will collect your maps at the beginning of class on Tuesday.

Have a great weekend!
