Gigantic Map Day

Today we suspended regular classes and took advantage of the learning opportunities that were available with the gigantic map of North America. The National Geographic Society offers these maps to schools around the country and we jumped at the chance to have one come to Paul. To learn more about the map please follow this link: http://www.ngsednet.org/community/index.cfm?community_id=515

We reviewed longitude and latitude by playing a coordinate grid game and we also ran a state location relay. Students had a great time exploring the gigantic map!
