The Charlottetown Conference Award

We are still working at learning the capital cities of the provinces and territories of Canada.  When your child gets 13/13 they will receive the Charlottetown Conference Award; a certificate of congratulations on their achievement. 


The scores students have received thus far have been sent home today. This should give an indication of what needs to be worked on yet.  I also included flashcards the kids can make at home for review.

If you have a computer motivated student, check out these links for computer games you can play at home to help:



1)      www.lizardpoint.com
a.       Test your geography knowledge - Clickable map quizzes
b.      The Americas
c.       Canada

a.       Maps and map puzzles
b.      Canada
c.       Map puzzle

3)      www.geography-map-games.com (good for practicing provinces, but not cities.)
a.       America
b.      Provinces

4)      www.sheppardsoftware.com (is not working on school computers but you can do it at home)

b.      Canada
 
We've also been using this chant.  Good luck!
