You, as a class, will put yourselves in order of the story, based on
the pictures.
You can only describe (verbally) to one another what is on your
picture to put yourselves in order.

Not everyone tells a story the same way.
Sometimes people don’t start from the beginning.

The name of the book/activity is: Zoom
WRAP-UP
I’m keeping times; so don’t tell other classes the “hints.”
THE GEOGRAPHIC PERSPECTIVE
Geography is non-linear
Geography occurs on a micro and a macro level
Geography is about the relationship of over lapping themes
It is broken up into Units, but the Units overlap
We expect you to see and apply these overlaps
Geography is: “the study of how observable spatial patterns
evolved through time” (Getis et al. 2009, p. 4)
