Teacher Information

FISD Geography Teachers – I have taken a review that CFB created and using their pictures and resources put it into a PowerPoint for you to use with your students. I have also included in the notes section some of their instructions to help you. You will see these listed as Teacher Script.

Materials Needed:

1. Tape, Glue sticks, and map colors2. Student Map – The map is in a Publisher File and will automatically print the world map on 6 different sheets of

paper. Students will have to tape the maps together. (This may take about 20 minutes or so for 9 th graders). 3. Student Packet – each student will need the student resource packet – since these items will be cut up, it is essential

that you run the packets on only one side of the paper. Suggestion: Since not all of the cutting and gluing will happen on the same day – you might want to give the students a manila folder to hold their remaining items.

4. Student quizzes5. Power Point6. Atlases or textbooks

World Geography EOC ReviewBelow is an example of what your map will look like when we are complete.

Your Map will include items on the back …We will process significant information on the back of your map.

Physical Features

• You will begin to fill out physical features on each continent according to the physical features page of the resource packet. Students may need access to an atlas or textbook

• Glue key to top left corner of their map

Population• What do population pyramids tell us?

Population Pyramids1. Cut out the population pyramids from your student packet and glue them on or near the appropriate country. You will have 10 of them.

2. Cut out the blocks of people and glue them in or near two highly populated countries.

3. Cut out the growth images and glue them on or near two fast growing countries.

Your map should be starting to look like this one….

Exit slip

• How can we address problems facing fast growing populations?

• What are the challenges facing shrinking populations?

Culture – Draw a red heart on your map for each of the culture hearths on the map below.

Can you identify why each of these is a cultural hearth? Think history…..

Religion – where did it start and where has it spread? Complete the religion chart and

glue it on the back of your map….

Use the symbols you created in your religion chart to mark the location of each religion on your map.

Language – cut the key to the left from your student packet and glue it under your physical key on your map and label languages on your

map using this key.

Culture Quiz….

Migration - complete the push/pull chart below in your resource packet. Glue the chart to the back of your map as directed by your teacher.

Using the migration map below – draw arrows on your map to show the migration routes.

Why did each of these migrations occur?

Net migrations – Why do these different regions fall into these different categories?

Is your map starting to look like this?

Migration Quiz

EconomicsCut out the four pictures below and glue them next to the correct economic activity on the chart.

Glue the completed chart onto the back of your map as directed by your teacher.

Using what you know about economic activities, determine which level of development is most likely to have this activity (more developed, newly industrialized, or less developed).

Economics….On your economics chart like the one below, write a definition for each form of economy. Determine an example for each form of economy.

Polar - very cold and dry all yearTemperate - cold winters and mild summersArid - dry, hot all yearTropical - hot and wet all yearMediterranean - mild winters, dry hot summersMountains (tundra) very cold all year

The classification is based on maximum and minimum temperatures and the temperature range as well as the total and seasonal distribution of

precipitation.
