Unit 1 Part II Study Guide
Fill in the blank boxes with the appropriate information. The information comes from many
sources, notes, activities, maps, etc. The descriptions come in many forms, definitions,
examples, locations, etc. Your binder for notes and activities and your notes or spiral for vocab
are good resources. Remember, copies of my notes can be found on my Web site; however,
you may not use any notes or the study guide while taking the test.
