More on Centraqua

I made a better map of Centraqua's physical geography. Here it is:

Centraqua: Physical Geography

We finished off the unit with a tourism brochure that outlined the following aspects of our "utopia"s:

• * Name
• * Map
• Pictures
• Culture
• History (excerpts from settlement histories)
• Main Tourist Attractions
• Timeline &/or Important Events (excerpts from explorer's journal)
• Important People &/or Achievements &/or Inventions
• Geography &/or Natural Resources
• International Relations

(We included 6 of the 8 non-starred items in our brochures.)

Most of the students seemed to enjoy it. One of them just told me this class was the most fun he'd ever had - he liked how it really got him thinking about all sorts of different stuff. I had fun too! More on Centraqua later - if I have time for it!
