  1. We continue our quest for geographical knowledge… So Much to do…..

  2. Do Now- Write 5 Lines Think about the processes that create landforms, which process do you think is the most productive in creating the topography of the earth? Explain your answer.

  3. Information • Grades - initial grade sheet • MIRPL Assignment - 5 themes identified - begin summary writing • Library passes available for lunch Is your ID on?

  4. Current Events: World • UN sued for bringing cholera to Haiti - poor sanitation after 2010 earthquake • Brain eating amoeba - found in Louisiana Water - enters brain through nose

  5. Do Now- Write 5 Lines Think about the processes that create landforms, which process do you think is the most productive in creating the topography of the earth? Explain your answer.

  6. TOTD – Write at least 5 sentences What type of landform are you most familiar with? Where is it found.

  7. Ground Water • Ground Water - water trapped, held, in the pores of rocks - the amount of water changes in the pores - the top edge of this water is called the water table • Water Table - low levels = Drought - high levels = oversaturation (leads to flooding) What are the current water table levels in our area? Why?

  8. Water Table/Ground Water/Aquifers

  9. Aquifer Example

  10. Salt Water Lakes • Started as fresh water - outlet to the sea was blocked - man made barriers (Human Environment Interaction) - naturally formed barriers (movement) • What feature houses most of the world’s freshwater?

  11. Landforms • Using the diagram on pg. 34 and 35, identify the landforms. Include a definition, picture, and identify a location that contains the landforms - use the textbook or the online textbook to complete this assignment - use the internet to find locations • This is good information for our future study of regions

  12. Landforms – Mini Quiz 1 2 3 4 5 6

  13. Landforms – Mini Quiz 7 8 9 10

  14. Landforms – Mini Quiz 1 2 3 Cataract Glacier Butte 4 5 6 Plateau Steppe Delta

  15. Landforms – Mini Quiz 7 8 9 Island Volcano Oasis 10 Canyon

  16. T-P-S For the next minute or two, discuss the following question: If the continents are moving, they will eventually run into one another, is this possible, and if so, what would happen?

  17. Internal Forces that shape the Earth • Identify new Vocabulary • Read the sections • Complete the diagrams • This may be done with a partner. This must look like something productive, i.e. students talking about the topic of internal forces. Anything that does not look like “productive work” will result in the group being disbanded.

  18. TOTD – Write at least 5 sentences If the surface of the earth is constantly changing, how would these continual changes affect development?
