1. 1. 5 DO NOW 1. 5 DO NOW You will have 5 minutes to complete the following. 1.What point is located at 20 S 20E? 2.What point is located at 60 S 40 W? 3.What are the coordinates of point H? 4.What line is letter B on?

2. OBJECTIVE Students will interpret and understand topographic maps. Agenda: Do Now Topographic maps Vocabulary Power Wall Review Stations Closure: Dice Roll Exit Ticket

3. Homework 1.5 Topographic worksheet

4. What observations can you make about this picture?

5. TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS A two-dimensional way of showing a three-dimensional image of Earth’s elevations Topographic maps show elevation.

7. ELEVATION Elevation is how high something is above sea level.

8. TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS CONTOUR LINES lines drawn on a map connecting points of equal elevation (meaning if you physically followed a contour line, elevation would remain constant.)

9. Contour Line CONTOUR LINES

10. ACTIVITY #1

11. TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS CONTOUR INTERVAL How much the elevation increases

12. CONTOUR INTERVAL Subtract the lower elevation from the higher elevation.

13. What is the Contour Interval? (300-275) = 25 feet CONTOUR INTERVAL

14. TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS RELIEF Variations (difference) in elevation

15. TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS DIFFERENCE = RELIEF

16. CONTOUR INTERVAL Relief= higher elevation – lower elevation

17. Difference = RELIEF 325-250 = 75 RELIEF

18. ACTIVITY #2

19. SLOPE The incline or steepness of a hill.

20. Slope is Steep Slope is gentle

21. ACTIVITY #3

25. Review Stations You will have 3 minutes to complete the questions at each station. Your answers will be recorded on your own sheet of paper. This activity will go in your lab section of your notebook.

26. Dice Roll In your class work/ lab section students will respond to the following questions: 1.By doing what we just did, what did we accomplish? 2. Why did we do what we did? 3. How might you be able to use what we did?

27. Exit Ticket Students will answer the following question on an index card: If we went hiking as a class trip, what would the value of a topographic map be?
