Mapping Wealth and Poverty in Brazil

Today, we started working on an assignment in which the kids will create a chloropleth map.  The first step is to order the per captia GDP data, which provided, of the states of Brazil.  The next step is to develop classes, or ranges of per capita GDP, and assign a color to each range.  Finally, the map of Brazil needs to be colored based on the color/range scheme each child has developed.

The kids will have all hour tomorow, May 16, to work on this assignment.  It is due Friday, May 17.  Friday, we will resume Country presentations.

Thanks,
Cathy
