HWC1.2 Day 58 - South Asia Geography & Religions

Objective:  Identify and label countries, cities, bodies of water, and geographic features of South Asia.

Task:  To start class,  we'll briefly discuss the Student Summit.  For this event, you will need to create a collage to visually represent your experience in the Flat Classroom project and create a script (30-45 seconds) that you will read from on the summit day.

Then, we'll begin our examination of South Asia with a game to check your knowledge of the South Asia map.  Next, we'll take some time to watch and participate in a demonstration on arable land and population density in South Asia.  Finally, you'll spend the last portion of class working through a geography "workshop."
