Geography 100 – Physical Geography of Canada I: Earth Science

Fall 2026

Welcome to Geography 100!  This is a great opportunity to learn together about God’s creation …

This week, please

  • Read online notes 13 and Chapter 13 (text)
  • Lab 1 is due Tuesday, September 22.  This is a Quiz on Canvas.  You can take as much time as you like; it is open book; but you do have to do it all in one sitting.  Allow about 2-3 hours for it.  You will need a ruler.  If you don’t have one, borrow one or print one off.
  • Record your readings for last week by Tuesday midnight on Canvas.
  • Lab 2 is due Wednesday, September 29.
  • Make an awesome comment in the discussion forum on Canvas by Saturday midnight.  These are pretty easy marks, so please take advantage of them.  And it is a great way to get to know your classmates.
  • If you missed the introductory zoom session, a recording of it is here:  https://ubc.zoom.us/rec/share/bPg-3SvPq40w56VO9E4LfKxUm3_ALmGFL0N54JIfSSEVRi3BwBQmv5drYEkfCPzL.7eMJeUYxC3NUbeDT   Passcode: $0+uWJdi
