Chapter 3 Exam Tomorrow, Regions of Texas Project Due Friday

Tomorrow the students will take their exam over Chapter 3. I continue to try and slowly acclimate the students to my expectations and will - this time only - allow them to use their notes for the test. The notes must be in the foldable format we worked on in class. The test will feature questions on each of the four geographic regions of Texas as well as the maps of the major cities and rivers.

*TAG/PAP NOTE*: Just a reminder that the Regions of Texas project is due at the beginning of class on Friday 9/28. Per a parent request, below is the map I referred to in my initial post on the project. Full instructions for the project can be found in the post from 9/20 below.
