Purpose:   Examine the unique culture, geography, and history of Oceania and Australia.

Task: Good morning!  When you arrive to class please clear your desk of everything except a pencil in preparation for the map quiz.  After you've finished the quiz, please turn it in at the back of the room and read the documents on Maori & Aboriginal cultures (linked below).  Then, use headphones or earbuds to watch "Kiribati: The Islands Being Destroyed By Climate Change."  If you finish with the work above before everyone has finished with the map quiz, please begin working on your Latin America map.  Finally, we'll spend the last portion of class completing summary notes on the region.
