Location
Where something is on the globe. uses latitude and longitude lines and we use directions North, South, East and West
EXACT spot on the planet.• Latitude lines run sideways
• Longitude lines run north and south
Your desk could be “ Wall side, third row, second desk.”

Importance of Location
The placement of a given spot on the globe will affect its climate, amount of sunlight it gets, vegetation, animal life etcThese will in turn have an impact on the people who live there
Do Eskimos dress the same way as people in Hawaii?

Importance of Place
Our surroundings will impact on the development of society.
Denver is high up in the mountains – how will that affect the way people live?Philadelphia is at the confluence of 2 major rivers, with easy access to the ocean – how will that affect the way we live?Britain is an island – how will that affect the way people there live?

Interaction
How people use the “stuff” around them or how their geography causes people to change to adapt to it.
Pennsylvania has the Appalachian mountains in it. These mountains have vast amounts of coal. Therefore, Pennsylvania does a great deal of coal mining. We INTERACT with the geography.We also CHANGE our geography. We strip the mountains apart to get to the coal. We level mountains and fill in ravines and low ground
• Leningrad in Russia – its built on a swamp• Philadelphia airport – used to be part of the Delaware River!
