Mystery Hangout

Mrs. Grau's 7th grade World Geography class (hour 1) took part in a mystery hangout.  Their goal was to figure out where in the world the class we were hanging out with was.  The students did a great job using their mapping skills and deductive reasoning to figure out that the class was in Houston, Texas.  The class we were skyping was able to figure out our location as well.  After the skype we spent some time sharing facts about our area as well as having a short discussion on what comes to mind when we think of Texas as they think of Wisconsin.  The students did an excellent job working together on this hangout.
