Grade 8 Homework

Week 5 HW: Study for Summative test!

9/15/2015

0 Comments

 
Please review presentations, flashcards, notes, etc. to study and prepare for Wednesday's Summative Test. Please take a look at all of the presentations, PDF documents, videos, etc. posted on the Grade 8 Main Page  (look at the section for "Geography Mini-Unit")

You will be assessed on the following MYP Criterion:

Criterion A: Knowing and Understanding
i.   use a range of terminology in context
ii.  demonstrate knowledge and understanding of subject-specific content and concepts, 

    through descriptions, explanations and examples

  • This will be assessed primarily through questions that test your knowledge on geography vocabulary terms, and your understanding of geography concepts (5 Themes of Geography, The 4 Spheres & how they interact together to create the world's climate, landforms, and make life possible, Map Distortion etc.)

Criterion D: Thinking Critically
i. analyze concepts, issues, models, visual representation and/or theories
ii. summarize information to make valid, well-supported arguments

  • This will be assessed through interpreting data on a variety of maps, and your response to open-ended questions that require you to write a longer response and summarize your understanding of geographic information, models and concepts, while also considering multiple perspectives.
