Climate

Today we finished notes and discussion on latitude as a factor that affects climate. The new term today that is important is the albedo effect. Students were then given some questions from the textbook to work on - # 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 on pages 49 - 51. For number 7 they were given a worksheet to help them in completing the work.

We also spent a few minutes at the beginning of class talking about the recent announcement of the 6.2 billion dollar project on the Lower Churchill. It does present a lot of opportunity for students in the future and is an important event in our province. Hopefully students can see the relevance and it is a case of where our geography is certainly helping make our province a more prosperous place.
