Classical Conversations :: Cycle 3, Week 3

Printing a Large Map
I finally figured out how to print a large US map for us to work on at home. (You can also buy them at Lakeshore Learning for $4. I will probably buy a Lakeshore map anyway, so that we can practice tracing... Or save money and laminate the one I just printed!)

1) Find a large image to print (I used this one http://www.freeusandworldmaps.com/images/USPrintable/USA52BlankBWPrint.jpg)
2) Open that image in Microsoft Paint (not sure about the Apple equivalent; sorry!)
3) Page Setup > Scaling > Fit to: 2 by 1
4) Print

Science Experiment Sheets
There's a great prepared set on the CC forum: https://www.classicalconversations.com/component/ccfilesharing/index.php?option=com_ccfilesharing&task=downloadFile&fileid=3260e77de0f59de4f64c7ad9ab1ffa30

We're going to print these and fill them out each week as we discuss the science experiment we did in class.
