World Geography with Mrs. Francisci

Every 8th grade World Geography class in Suffolk will be working on a PBA (Project Based Assessment) project during the 2nd Nine Weeks. The project is entitled “Crisis in Africa” and students will be working individually or with a partner to create a research paper and multimedia presentation on a political, economic or environmental problem currently affecting Sub-Saharan countries. All parts of the project must be completed in class.

Here are the due dates: Blocks 2 and 6: December 15 and 19. Blocks 1, 3 nd 7: December 18 or 20.

PowerPoints have been uploaded for the 2nd Nine Weeks.

We will be traveling around the world in Geography this school year. I will be your tour guide. Our first stop on our trip will be Europe.

I am looking forward to meeting you and learning more about you. We are going to have a wonderful school year.
