We have been learning about the 5 Themes of Geography and the 7 Characteristics of a Civilization. As we learn about different civilizations, colonies, and groups of people in history, we can apply the 5/7's to each. 6th grade has learned about some early civilizations including the Mayas and Aztecs, and we are just concluding our study of each of the Native American tribal regions.

*Culminating collaborative poster about a tribal region is due Thursday Oct. 29.
*Final test on Native American tribal regions is on October 30.

Ask your child to tell you more about the 7 Characteristics of a Civilization, and
listen and learn along with The 5 Themes of Geography song... Yeah!
