5 themes of geography

Analyzing the world with the five themes of geography helps people understand connections with people and the world better by showing people what places are like and how people use, adapt or change the environment there. Also how people differentiate places and why they differentiate places. Showing how one place is different from the other in culture, land features, and many other diverse characteristics.

I think the hardest theme of geography to understand is movement. I think movement is hardest to understand because I think the other themes are simple. For example location is just knowing how to find the absolute location with longitude and latitude and relative location is knowing the direction and distance from a place to  the place your talking about. Also I think place is easy to understand because place is what it is like at a place and its human characteristics and physical characteristics. Next is human and the environment which I think is a step above place and location and is a little harder to understand because you need to understand three things. One thing is adapt which is how people change in response to an environment. Another piece of human and the environment is alter which is how people change the environment to live in a more suitable fashion. Finally the last part of human and the environment is use which is how people use resources to make materials to make life easier. Now last I think region is easy because all you have to know is that the world is divided into regions based on characteristics of a place and region can overlap creating multiple regions in the same area. Therefore Movement would be hardest because you have to understand how people move and how they sell goods and services. Also the part I think is hardest is movement of ideas because you need to understand how people move their ideas and spread their ideas around the world.

Map of Franklin

When thinking of basic map skills i find the names of Continents and Oceans easy. I find knowing the Oceans and Continents easy because there are only around ten combined Continents and Oceans that I need to know. I struggled the most with coordinates. I struggled the most with coordinates because I think it is hard to find the exact longitude and latitude of places like Franklin because it is in between numbers and has a lot of decimals. Basic map skills are necessary because you need map skills throughout your whole life to find where you are, where you're going and how to get there.
