Monday Jan. 13th
Today we finished the documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" and had a short discussion about it and it's relevance today. We discussed how this could springboard into your projects, which we are starting this week and will be due (with short presentation) on Thursday Jan. 23rd.

Wednesday Jan. 15th
In the first half of today we tacked Ocean Currents. We read pp. 248-252 and 176-178 in our text Earth Matters. We took some notes, watched a TEDed (linked below) and talked about these currents and put both the major ocean conveyor belt (thermo-haline) and gyres on a map. See below. We finished off talking about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and answered these questions from the link below.
In the second half we finished GPGP questions and continued on with our research for our projects.
