3 Five Themes of GeographyDate

4 1. Location : where are things located

5  Where are thing located  Location means either an exact position using latitude or longitude, or a description of a place in relation to places around it

6 Five Themes of GeographyDate 1. Location : where are things located 2. Place: what is a particular location like?

7  What is a particular location like?  Place describes physical characteristics such as mountains or rivers, as well as human characteristics such as the people who live there

8  How are places similar or different?  Regions have physical or human characteristics that unite them and make them different from or similar to other regions

9  How do people, goods, and ideas move from one location to another?  Movement of people, goods, and ideas changes places and regions and the people who live there

10  How do people relate the physical world?  Humans adapt to their environment and change elements of it.

11 #4: Movement

12 5. Human-Environment Interaction: how do people relate to the physical world? Push/Pull Factors

13  Reasons for why people migrate from one place to another.  Push Factor – reasons why someone moves out of an area  Pull Factor– reasons for why someone moves to a new area

14 Vocabulary Date Push Factor: reasons why someone moves out of an area Pull Factor: reasons for why someone moves to a new area

15  Population Pressure  Poor infrastructure  Poor Job offers  Bad education  Poor Health care  Poor (ecological) environment  Natural Disasters  Improvement in the standard of living  Better health care  Better employment opportunities  Higher wages  Better education  Better future options

16  An obstacle preventing people from moving from one place to another.  What might be some examples of a Barriers to Movement?

17 Vocabulary Date Push Factor: reasons why someone moves out of an area Pull Factor: reasons for why someone moves to a new area Barriers to Movement: An obstacle preventing people from moving from one place to another

19 #1: Location

20  a measure of distance north or south of the equator.

21  An imaginary circle around the Earth that divides the Earth into northern and southern hemispheres

22  the position of a point on Earth’s surface east or west, from the prime meridian to 180°

23  0° longitude line running through Greenwich, England.

24  http://www.classzone.com/cz/books/ms_wcg_aaa_nc/book_home.htm?state =NC http://www.classzone.com/cz/books/ms_wcg_aaa_nc/book_home.htm?state =NC

25  Page A20-A21  Longitude of Philadelphia, PA – 75°W  Latitude of Philadelphia, PA -- 40°N  Latitude of Albuquerque, NM -- 35°N  Longitude of Albuquerque, NM -- 107°W

26  Latitude THEN Longitude

27  Everyday, your warm up will be your Daily Geography.  You will have 5 minutes to complete this warm-up, starting at the bell.  You should be SILENT, while working on Daily Geography  You will be graded on COMPLETENESS and writing in COMPLETE SENTENCES  You will be graded everyday on these two criteria

28  Contiguous – sharing an edge or boundary; touching  Legend (key) – a list that explains the symbols on a map  Political map – a map that shows human-made features and boundaries such as cities, highways, and countries

29  Scale allows us to measure distance on a map  To measure scale, we first need to know the distance from point A to point B on the map  For this you can use either a ruler, or simply a piece of paper  Second, we need to use the scale provided on the map, to measure the distance, and convert it into miles (or feet, etc)
