In geography, we have been touring our way through Latin America, finishing up our tour this week.
We looked at over-population and spatial inequality in Mexico City.
We looked at the Caribbean Islands and the extreme weather that affects the area. We learned how hurricanes form and why they are so devastating. We even built a human hurricane in class!
Next, we explored the Amazon Rain Forest and how different interest groups believe the land should be used in different ways. We discussed why each point of view is justified and also flawed.
Last, we looked at what it was like to live at very high elevation, such as the Andes Mountains of South America.
Next week, we will begin reviewing our study of Latin America preparing for a unit test before we move on to Europe.
