Welcome to the Geography Page!
This page is specifically for students currently enrolled in Mrs. Ruffin's Geography class. We will be using the Geography Wiki for online discussions, blog assignments, and research. The Wiki will also serve as an e-organizer to house electronic files of certain class materials such as syllabi, handouts, and PowerPoints and will also be the home of the classroom calendar that will provide dates and details concerning homework, test/quizzes, and projects.
