Great Resource!
Wish I'd found this sooner. I will use it the next time I teach this unit
Great packet...helps to plan a really detail lesson.
Love the options.
Great tools for my students to use. I plan to use the Google Earth activities as class lessons to work on together.
My students loved the hands on approach. Great job, thanks.

Well done and appropriate even for fifth graders who need support with reviewing these basics. Thank you.
