Students In Action!



Earth.Buzz students are tackling one of their first tasks for the year! We are working on completing "Tear Maps" of the continents and oceans in the hopes of being able to identify the shape of our landmasses on Earth. Students made their first attempt at the continents and oceans quiz today, stay tuned for results!

Thank you to these students for their hard work and effort thus far!

Continents & Oceans!


Do you know the 7 continents and 5 oceans on planet Earth?! Tomorrow is your first quiz! We need to understand what land and water features make up our planet. Do you know which continent is the largest? Do you know which continent is the smallest? Which continent is the most populated? Which continent is the least populated? If you can answer these questions on a 3 x 5 card, send them to me by Friday for extra credit!
