Three Themes of Geography



Today we went over class expectations and course outline. Then we began to look at the five themes of geography. We discussed LOCATION (absolute and relative), PLACE (physical and human characteristics), and HUMAN-ENVIRONMENT INTERACTION (how humans depend on, adapt to, and modify the environment).

Next class period we will look at MOVEMENT and REGIONS.

Homework:
Find an article in a newspaper (either a paper newspaper or an online newspaper) that interests you.
Read the article.
Write a paragraph relating the article to at least two themes of geography.

You may submit electronically by sharing your document with savage.catherine@gmail.com or you may type it and print it, or you may neatly handwrite the paragraph.

IMPORTANT: Include the news source, the title of the article, the author, and the date the article was written.
