In Ms. Clark's Learning Social, we will be learning about continents and oceans. We will use maps, virtual environments, and interactive activities to learn. Our objective is to identify and label the seven continents and five oceans on a map with 80% accuracy. We will also learn about major landforms and bodies of water. For these lessons, we will need a social studies journal, blank paper, pencils, colored pencils or crayons, and optional headphones. Welcome to Ms. Clark's Learning Social.
