Week 1, January 31st

Hello Everyone,

We will start back 2nd semester on January 31st when the rest of the non-science classes resume.  I know you'll have some down time in January, and some of you have asked for additional work to keep busy or improve your performance in this class. If you are interested in this type of extra-level work, please read one of the following books over break. Many of them are available at your local library or inexpensively online:

Tim Marshall, Prisoners of Geography

Tim Marshall, The Age of Walls

Great Maps, the World's Masterpieces Explored and Explained

Robert Kaplan, the Revenge of Geography

Jared Diamond--Guns, Germs, and Steel

Do let me know if you would like to pursue this option by shooting me an email and telling me the name of the work you plan to read.  Again, this is not required work, just 1) extra work to improve your performance and/or 2) enrichment work because you are curious and diligent. ; )

In the meanwhile, Happy 2020 and enjoy the quiet of January,

Mrs. Price
