ONGOING ASSIGNMENT
DUE March 1st 

Over the course of the trimester you will compile a map using Google My Maps. It is really important to expand your geographical knowledge to study world history. This map will serve as a study guide as well as an autobiographical tool. 

The map must have at least 8 blue pins (places you've already visited), 15 red pins (important area, city, place, site of an event in history that we've studied) 8 green pins ( places you want to visit). Each tag should have a 2-3 sentence caption attached. Mr. Firman will give a tutorial in class. 

See my map for an example. 

What makes humans different from other species? How were early humans able to adapt and migrate to every corner of the Earth?
