Get to work… 1.In your ISN table of contents, fill in pages 60 and 61 as Population Density/Distribution. 2.On the top of ISN pages 60 and 61, put Oct 12 and Population Density/Distribution. (Remember: all the way in the top corner and box it in) 3.Attach the worksheet to page 61 (tape on one side only) 4.Start filling it in, starting on textbook page 104.
