GRADE 9 ACTIVITY AND SOLUTION


GRADE 9 - TODAY'S NOTE

Classifying Countries

Countries can be classified or grouped according to their social and economic development. Economic development is measured by the strength of a country’s economy, the distribution of the country’s wealth, the balance of trade, and other factors related to industrial and economic productivity. Social development relates to the quality of life and overall standard of living found in a country. Social development is measured by indicators such as life expectancy, access to health care, population growth, food supply, access to education, and gender equity.

Using these two measures, social and economic, countries are often grouped into one of three groups. These include:

Developed Countries

Newly industrializing Countries

Developing countries

Developed Countries	Newly industrializing Countries	Developing countries
Strong economic and social development	Poor economic or social development	Poor economic and social development
Canada United States	Mexico – strong economic development weak social development	Haiti

Political Map of Canada / Australia - Working in Arc Map Continued.

All Classes

Tomorrow we will have a test on contouring .  Don't Forget.
Sample Test Questions

Grade 9's

Today we continued to work in Arc Map. We continued to prepare a layout  of  Canada for final publication..

Grade 12

Today we continued to work in Arc Map.
1) We continued to prepare a layout  of  Australia.
2) We prepared a digital elevation map of our model island.
3) We continued to complete tutorials related to Map projections.

Late Post:

I am sorry for the late post.

Today we worked on two activities.
1. Elevation project
2. Political Map of Canada\Australia.
Keep up the good work. Except for the Excel work and the hand drawn contour map of your excel work, there is little that you can do at home related to these assignments. You can however prepare for
Friday's contour test.

The grade 12's completed their projection tutorial and their measurements of their model island. We continue processing this data tomorrow.

Have a good evening.

Contouring

Grade 9 - Today we reviewed and took up the contour activities started on Friday. We also produced a digital elevation model (DEM) from work that we started yesterday and was completed for homework last night. A number of students did not have their homework complete and are now behind. Class time was used to complete last night's homework.  Today's work must be completed before tomorrows class.

Grade 12 - Today the class was split into 2 groups. Group 1 measured elevation data from a model created yesterday in class and group 2 completed work using Arc Map related to map projections. Tomorrow the groups will swap activities.


SPECIAL NOTE Contouring test on Friday!!!

Contouring

Today we completed the contour activities from Friday and designed an island using grid paper. These activities are due tomorrow.

Mout St. Helens is represented using contour lines.
