January 14th, 2014

Students,

Today we got to practice our map reading skills. I know that in our world of GPS systems this may seem a bit outdated, well to some extent you are correct. However, there will be several occasions that you may have to read a map even if it is a Google map.

To that end we looked at several types of maps (climate, natural resources, and physical map) and compared them to population density maps. The goal was to draw conclusions regarding what influences people to live where they do?

As we move forward with the SW Asia unit we will begin to take a look at the Human Geography that makes the region tick, and look for causes to the conflict in the region.

Reminders: AP students your projects are due on February 3rd!!!!
