1st SEMESTER GEOGRAPHY MINI-UNIT
Below are a variety of Geo Related Power Points and Worksheets to prepare you for the Geo Exam. More information about the Geography Exam and Geo Unit will be given in class.
1) ULTIMATE GEO POWERPOINT - This pretty much has it all. This is used in class, great practice exams & lots of info. This big file will take a few minutes to download.
2) Colorful Map Packet Study Guide - These are scanned map packets done by legendary students Grace Cho, EriKa Roos and Connie Chen. Be happy here folks! You will have a much easier time identifying locations on a blank map packet thanks to these girls. You can use this power point to study geography locations and statistics. Mr P highly recommends using this to study for the Geo Exam. If you cannot download it, then bring a USB to class and copy off the student computer. Or have a friend download and send it to you via email. Good luck!
3) Do you need help studying? Go to Legendary Sketch's Geo Page! Over the years, students mention this website as being a huge help. Check it out. (She's a super student from the past that was awesome enough to leave behind this website for you. Ask Mr. P about her!)
NOTE: Mr P recently contacted Olivia Sketch, who is one of his Legendary Geo Hall of Fame former students. Her amazing Geography website might not be functioning. Ms. Sketch said she will try to upload her superb Geography Website Project once again for students to use as a geography studying tool. SOMETHING TO CONSIDER: Perhaps you could create a similar Legacy Project (Final Project) to assist future students with their geography studies. Mr P is always looking for improvements to this class. For semester finals, students are given a choice of taking a Semester Final Exam or creating a Legacy Project. Any students interested in doing a Legacy Project must get approval from Mr. P. More information pertaining to Legacy Project will be discussed in the coming weeks.
4) BLANK GEO MAP PACKETS - Print Geo Packet out below (if possible). Mr P will be handing out a map packet in class to each student. The map packet is like the maps listed below. Each student will get 1 map packet. The purpose of having these maps online is several folds.
A) To use as a practice blank map for studying purposes.
B) To replace lost map packets.
C) Visual for parents to know what map packet handout looks like.
Don't have Powerpoint? Only want to get a hold of one page? (...or 2... or 3.... or....)

GEO PRACTICE GAMES These are online websites that offer Geography Games for practice. Mr. P's Geography Exam will only feature locations listed on the map packet he hands out to students. Still, Mr. P believes it is good to review these Geography websites. Have fun!

Saturday, September 11, 2010
Greetings and welcome to the 2010-2011 school year.
There are a multitude of purposes for using Mr P's website.
1) Students can check homework (HW)
2) Parents can check homework
3) Students (especially absent) can find out about what happened in class.
4) Parents can get a sense of what is going on in class.
5) Students and parents can find out about upcoming exams, quizzes, projects, etc.
While this information can be helpful, parents and students should NOT ONLY rely on this portion of the website for information pertaining to World History. Students should:
a) Attend class and pay attention to instruction
b) Exchange phone numbers and emails with more than one trustworthy student
c) Start a class blog to communicate about class matters (students have been doing this for the past few years now)
d) Check out Technical Thompson's Website (P-Alumni Student Class Website)
Due to various restrictions like lack of time, no budget for secretaries and website masters, as well as a need to attend to personal matters, Mr. P does NOT always have this portion of the website updated. He tries his best. Yes, not very far back in history there were no such thing as websites and whatnot. Mankind has survived for thousands of years without the internet and other technological 'wonders' and I suppose we can continue to do so. Think of this website as an 'extra' and not a necessity. Regardless, I hope that you still find this portion of the website helpful this year.
WORLD HISTORY CLASS INFO & HOMEWORK
B) If you are bored, want to think and have the time, watch this. You can leave a letter in Mr P's comment box regarding what you thought of the video, questions or/and comments you have. You do NOT have to do this.
FRIDAY Sept 10th, 2010

3) Do you need help studying? Go to Legendary Sketch's Geo Page! Over the years, students mention this website as being a huge help. Check it out. (She's a super student from the past that was awesome enough to leave behind this website for you. Ask Mr. P about her!)
NOTE: Mr P recently contacted Olivia Sketch, who is one of his Legendary Geo Hall of Fame former students. Her amazing Geography website might not be functioning. Ms. Sketch said she will try to upload her superb Geography Website Project once again for students to use as a geography studying tool. SOMETHING TO CONSIDER: Perhaps you could create a similar Legacy Project (Final Project) to assist future students with their geography studies. Mr P is always looking for improvements to this class. For semester finals, students are given a choice of taking a Semester Final Exam or creating a Legacy Project. Any students interested in doing a Legacy Project must get approval from Mr. P. More information pertaining to Legacy Project will be discussed in the coming weeks.
4) BLANK GEO MAP PACKETS - Print Geo Packet out below (if possible). Mr P will be handing out a map packet in class to each student. The map packet is like the maps listed below. Each student will get 1 map packet. The purpose of having these maps online is several folds.
A) To use as a practice blank map for studying purposes.
B) To replace lost map packets.
C) Visual for parents to know what map packet handout looks like.

There are a multitude of purposes for using Mr P's website.
1) Students can check homework (HW)
2) Parents can check homework
3) Students (especially absent) can find out about what happened in class.
4) Parents can get a sense of what is going on in class.
5) Students and parents can find out about upcoming exams, quizzes, projects, etc.
While this information can be helpful, parents and students should NOT ONLY rely on this portion of the website for information pertaining to World History. Students should:
a) Attend class and pay attention to instruction
b) Exchange phone numbers and emails with more than one trustworthy student
c) Start a class blog to communicate about class matters (students have been doing this for the past few years now)
d) Check out Technical Thompson's Website (P-Alumni Student Class Website)
Due to various restrictions like lack of time, no budget for secretaries and website masters, as well as a need to attend to personal matters, Mr. P does NOT always have this portion of the website updated. He tries his best. Yes, not very far back in history there were no such thing as websites and whatnot. Mankind has survived for thousands of years without the internet and other technological 'wonders' and I suppose we can continue to do so. Think of this website as an 'extra' and not a necessity. Regardless, I hope that you still find this portion of the website helpful this year.

HW: Start Geo Packet -- Due Friday
1st SEMESTER GEOGRAPHY MINI-UNIT
Below are a variety of Geo Related Power Points and Worksheets to prepare you for the Geo Exam. More information about the Geography Exam and Geo Unit will be given in class.
1) ULTIMATE GEO POWERPOINT - This pretty much has it all. This is used in class, great practice exams & lots of info. This big file will take a few minutes to download.
2) Colorful Map Packet Study Guide - These are scanned map packets done by legendary students Grace Cho, EriKa Roos and Connie Chen. Be happy here folks! You will have a much easier time identifying locations on a blank map packet thanks to these girls. You can use this power point to study geography locations and statistics. Mr P highly recommends using this to study for the Geo Exam. If you cannot download it, then bring a USB to class and copy off the student computer. Or have a friend download and send it to you via email. Good luck!
3) Do you need help studying? Go to Legendary Sketch's Geo Page! Over the years, students mention this website as being a huge help. Check it out. (She's a super student from the past that was awesome enough to leave behind this website for you. Ask Mr. P about her!)
NOTE: Mr P recently contacted Olivia Sketch, who is one of his Legendary Geo Hall of Fame former students. Her amazing Geography website might not be functioning. Ms. Sketch said she will try to upload her superb Geography Website Project once again for students to use as a geography studying tool. SOMETHING TO CONSIDER: Perhaps you could create a similar Legacy Project (Final Project) to assist future students with their geography studies. Mr P is always looking for improvements to this class. For semester finals, students are given a choice of taking a Semester Final Exam or creating a Legacy Project. Any students interested in doing a Legacy Project must get approval from Mr. P. More information pertaining to Legacy Project will be discussed in the coming weeks.
b) Print Geo Packet out below (if possible). Mr P will be handing out a map packet in class to each student. The map packet is like the maps listed below. Each student will get 1 map packet. The purpose of having these maps online is several folds.
A) To use as a practice blank map for studying purposes.
B) To replace lost map packets.
C) Visual for parents to know what map packet handout looks like.
4) Don't have Powerpoint? Only want to get a hold of one page? (...or 2... or 3.... or....)
- Pg 1 (Locations pg 1)
- Pg 2 (Locations pg 2)
- Pg 3 (World map)
- Pg 4 (Africa map)
- Pg 5 (Asia map)
- Pg 6 (Europe map)
- Pg 7 (N. America map)
- Pg 8 (S. America map)
- Pg 9 (Australia map)
- Pg 10 (Middle East Locations pg 3)
- Pg 11 (Middle East / Central Asia map)
- Pg 12 (Israel / Palestine map)
- Pg 13 (1 Page Geo Stat Sheet) - Take a sneak peak, if you dare. For 2nd semester, it includes questions on Geo Stats such as population, world religions, etc.
GEO PRACTICE GAMES These are online websites that offer Geography Games for practice. Mr. P's Geography Exam will only feature locations listed on the map packet he hands out to students. Still, Mr. P believes it is good to review these Geography websites. Have fun!
a) http://www.nationalgeographic.com/geospy/
b) Globe Game
c) http://www.lizardpoint.com/fun/geoquiz/

B-day on the

If you are reading this, be sure to wish Mr P a happy belated 52nd birthday tomorrow in class. It will also inform Mr P that you are a clever student who found the secret hidden message here.
Be sure to scroll down on future posts to find more hidden messages like this one. You never know what you might find. Have a swell day in the universe.
