In this project, you and a partner will research a significant location on the North American Plate. You will be assigned specific latitude and longitude and you will need to determine what is at that location. Then you will research that location, create a brochure, and present that brochure to the class. As a class, we will learn about many significant locations on the North American Plate. ======
