Day 22 - Introduction to the Island Project

Today we will look at Google Earth to identify some actual landforms you defined yesterday.

We will also discuss how latitude and climate are related.

• HINT
• Low Latitudes = higher temperatures
• High Latitudes = lower temperatures
• Middle Latitudes = moderate temperatures.

Next we will listen to my interview with Arnold. He is currently a governor, but wants to be president. He can't be president of the United States because he was not born in the U.S. (which is a Constitutional Law - you must be a natural-born citizen of the U.S. in order to serve as president).

Arnold wants his own island nation. You are being asked to create it. There are specific details that you must follow (Arnold will tell you about them).

Once you listen to Arnold, you might want to visit the site below to help you with your ideas.
