2) Work on Cartograms. We will be working on cartograms on Monday as well.  If you are unable to finish your cartogram on Monday, please complete for homework. Due on Tuesday 12/4.

Some notes on the cartogram:
*They must be neat and legible.
*States must be touching.
*You do not have to make the states resemble their actual shape. However, the states must be in their proper location. (Example: Illinois should be next to Indiana and Iowa, and underneath Wisconsin.)
*The cartogram should take up around half of your sheet.
*You are expected to use every state for which there is data on your topic. You are only allowed to do less than 50 states if there is not data on some states. If your topic does not have data for at least 35 states, then you must select a new topic.
