Review

  • Tell me about something about the Canada/U.S. border.
  • Tell me what you remember about the provinces of Ontario and Manitoba.
  • What is Maine? Is it a province, a state, or a city? Where is it?

This is the start of the new lesson.

Pop Quiz Time!

Both of you, please create a pop quiz for your sibling. Please follow these steps:

  1. Go to https://flicks.dreamhosters.com/aa and pick out six facts from any of the lessons.
  2. Write down your question, and the answer in a notebook. Write down the lesson number too.
  3. Give the quiz to your sibling.
  4. Mark it. The score will be out of six. You can give a half point for a somewhat true but incomplete answer. So, 6/6 would be a perfect mark.
