On Monday you will have your first of several map quizzes.  It is VITAL that you learn the map of the world by heart as quickly as possible.  We will quiz you one region at a time to make this process a bit easier for you, but it is essential that you are studying the map and quizzing yourself as often as possible in addition to your other work for this course.  Click on the link below for a blank maps of North America so that you can practice.

Just a couple of reminders regarding tonight…

1) You will need to finish your labs this evening, and they should be ready to be turned in complete (part 1, part 2 [including your three maps]).  If you run into any trouble this evening just email me.

2) Don’t forget that you do have a reading tonight from your Rubenstein text as well, pages 14-20.  Be sure, as always to take notes, and be prepared for any discussion.
