Don’t miss these questions.
Are you lost? Do you have GPS in your car? Are you aware of the traffic rules and regulations? Do you carry a map?
Locations. They are important because people go to places. Without the knowledge of Geography, life would have nowhere to go. Travel interests everyone, adults and kids alike. That is why we have Social Studies and subjects about Geography.
These words will help:
1. Geography means surface features of a place. It is the study of the earth’s surface, continents, and people. (E.g. geography of the world, Lands and People)
2. A map is the flat world and places on earth, with coordinates; It shows earth directions North, South, East, West; The map is flat while the globe is round (but the earth round like a ball)
Study the map of the world; Mapping
3. Hurricane is violent storm with strong winds and rain.
A tornado is like a very small hurricane
Areas of extremely low pressure build up over warm oceans. Warm wet air spins into the middle of the low pressure area causing the strong winds. The warm air rises and the water vapor in it becomes clouds and heavy rain.
4. An eclipse means exceed in importance; overshadow; A solar eclipse is when the moon interrupts light from the sun. A lunar eclipse is when the earth interrupts light shining on the moon; occultation
5. Pollution is contamination. There is pollution when unwanted/harmful substances are present.
6. A crescent is when the half of the moon facing the sun is always set up. As the moon goes around Earth, you see different parts of this half. The moon takes about a month to go around the earth; when the sun is shaped small and thin shaped like the moon
The moon is a crescent in the first and last quarter.
7.Rainwater
The Water Cycle
Rainwater soaks
Into the soil and rocks
It slowly seeps
Into lakes and rivers
Rainwater runs off slopes into lakes and rivers
Water evaporates
Plants spark off water from the ground
They release it back into
The air through their leaves.
8.Glaciers are rivers of ice. They are in very cold areas and on high mountains.
For example: Alpine glacier, ice cap, icefall
9. Nuclear The nuclear power plant
Take note: nuclear weapon, nuclear power; nation of an arsenal of atomic weapons having to do with atomic energy
10. A strategic location is location at the center or any location in an important area.
Off you go with Dora the Explorer!
