7th grade Geography Week of April 14 - 20.

Hello Green Collar Workers of the (TIR)!!!!!!!

As we discussed in class today, society has witnessed three Industrial Revolutions!!!!!

The First Industrial Revolution (FIR), that occurred in the late 18th Century, and it was powered by c_ _ _ and s _ _ _ _.   

The Second Industrial Revolution (SIR), that happened in the late 19th Century, utilized o _ _ and the invention of the t _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _. 

The Third Industrial Revolution (TIR), beginning in the mid 20th Century, and it’s developing the use of r _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _   resources and artificial i _ _ e _ _i _ e _ _ e as we speak.  (Fill in the missing consonants).

How does this matter to you, the geography student?  I am glad you asked that question!!!!!! 

You recall the five (5) themes of geography, right?  Well, one theme is how humans interact with the environment, remember. 

And before we can look at where the future will take us, we must go back and look at history.  

So your assignment this week is to go to IXL - (Z.) 1. Renaissance origins and 2. Italian Renaissance: achievements in Literature and Art.  

Complete this assignment so that we can explore how an economy of machines will liberate you- as the new generation who will become artists, scientists, and engineers crafting a new social order.

Put your thinking caps on.....you will need brain power to look at how the future is here!!!!

Don’t forget, those of you who still have work to complete....get going or the world is going to pass right on by.

Collaborate with a classmate if you get stuck or you can always email me.

Love, Ms O
