Social 10-1
I did a homework check on your Chapter 1 Key Terms and Questions, and I collected your global connections map for marking today. I gave you the Illustrated Concept Map Assignment sheet, and you had some to move into small groups to do some brainstorming. The Illustrated Concept Map Assignment is due on Monday, September 25th. You also had class time to work on your Chapter 2 Key Terms and Questions, which are due on Friday, September 15th.SOCIAL 10-1 WORLD GEOGRAPHY TEST STUDY GUIDE:
This test will take place on Friday, September 15th. It is simply a country and capital cities identification test. You will be given a world map with certain countries, capital cities, and places identified and you need to be able to write out what country it is. Here are the countries that may appear on the test:
- any of the EU countries (there are 28 countries in the EU)
- any of the NATO countries (there's some overlap here with the EU, but not all EU countries are members of NATO)
- any of the G7 countries: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United States, and the United Kingdom
- full members of MERCOSUR: Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay and other associate members or countries that are achieving membership in MERCOSUR, such as: Venezuela, Bolivia, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador
- to ask you to know ALL of the countries in the African Union would be cruel, so we'll focus on countries that came up last year or will likely be in the news this year: Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Nigeria, South Africa, Sudan
- other very important countries that will be in the news this year, or that we'll be talking about, or get mentioned in your textbook: Cuba, Mexico, China, India, Myanmar (Burma), Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Pakistan, Philippines, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Israel
- **BIG HINT: if a country is a member of a few of these international organizations then there's a STRONG possibility that they will be on the test!!**
