  1. I really liked your project. It was very well organized, and was well detailed. It was great how you tackled certain things and did them well instead of doing everything basic. Great job!

  3. I loved how you had a weebly to display your information instead of doing a report. It was organized very well and your information was very detailed. There is only one thing I would change. In your "Place" category under Human Activities you talked about all the different crops that was grows there and then you said.. "and other industries" I wanted to know what a few other industries were.
    This was a great Weebly and example of a great 5 themes of Geography.

  4. Isabel,

    I wish I could tell you other industries. I tried looking for examples but everything said "...big industries...ancient industries...lots of industries..." Sorry that I couldn't find it.

  5. I thought that this way of showcasing what you learned was very creative and more approachable for students to read. It was very organized and I LOVED your choice of pictures! I know that pictures don't seem too important but you had very nice visuals to go along with what you were saying. It also made the presentation of the web page so much better.

  6. The first thing I really noticed was the bibliography, good job with citing all your sources I normally have problems with that. Good use of pictures to enhance the appearance of the cite and reading experience. My brother will be spending a semester of college in Rome next year your information about the city and area rather interesting. Good Job.

  7. Wow! That was a very creative way to present your information. I also thought you had a lot of great visuals. I thought the Google Map was a great addition, too. I thought that you had a lot of information, compared to other 5 Themes reports I've seen I think you went above and beyond. I'll definitely look to your report for inspiration if I ever to a 5 Themes report.
