Welcome students! I hope you are keeping safe and staying positive. Even though times are difficult and challenging right now, there is no reason why we should let it bring us down. This year we will explore the physical and human characteristics of each continent and cultural region. We will learn about the people, places, and environments at local, regional, national, and international levels. Students will also analyze how location affects economic activities in different economic systems. Please keep an open mind and heart and we will have an outstanding year together!
