Mrs. Minks World Geography Peyton High School

Zombie Geography

The goal of this project unit is for you to show your ability to display data on a map and analyze spatial relationships.

At the end of the project, you should have a completed map displaying 4 days of zombie attack data. You will include a short written description of where you identified the locations for Day 5 & 6 as high risk and why.

If a zombie virus were spreading, wouldn’t you want to know where it was going? You’ll need to use geographic tools and data to track the spread of the zombie apocalypse.

How are geographic tools used to make predictions and find solutions? How can geography help us prepare for a zombie outbreak?

Your map will: include important map features (direction, symbols, legend, index, scale) Identify major cities Show the spread of zombie attacks Show the connections between cities which help the zombie virus spread

How you decided where the zombies would spread.

What the heck is geography? What tools do geographers use and why? How do I design a map? What are the major cities in my country? How are major cities connected and how do they relate to each other What is the process of diffusion? How do I display data using maps?

!!!!!Our school doesn’t have an emergency plan for zombies!!!!

What do we need to know in order to warn and prepare for a zombie outbreak?

This is in place of both your entrance and exit ticket for today.
