This is when humans interact with their surroundings to their convenience, like have a place to sleep, or a bridge to cross water, or make a place for to eat.

My example is a bridge we made this to cross over the water below.

This photo shows region.

A region is a large mass of land that has common features and covers different places.

An example of this is the provinces of Canada.

There are three types of regions

Formal Regions:
Regions defined by governmental or administrative boundaries (States, Countries, Cities)
Functional Regions:
Regions defined by a function (newspaper service area, cell phone coverage area).

Vernacular Regions:
Regions defined by similar characteristics like natural features (Corn Belt, Rocky Mountain region) or people’s perceptions (Chinatown, Lower Mainland, Deep Cove)

Movement is the way ideas goods and people travel. Transport emails and telephones are good examples of movement

This shows place

Place is defined by physical or human characteristics that make somewhere unique. For example the Tower of London the Houses of Parliament and the London eye are physical features that make London unique.

This photo shows place.

Photo 1: A Local Park

Myrtle park

Reflection 1: A Local Park

1. This photo represents the theme location because myrtle park is the location the coordinates are 49.3203° N, 122.9503° W.

2. This photo shows how we have impacted on the environment by placing a social element within nature

3. This park is a great place to walk my dog and interact with my friends

Photo 2: A Small Business

Remember: you want your photo to not just represent what made and makes the West, but also you will need to explain how it shows one or more of the Five Themes of Geography.

For now, you can put multiple photos on the page, then you will be able to edit and choose from them later.

Reflection 2: A Small Business

1. This photo show human environment interaction because we built this sighn and the building it’s on to educate small children.

2. Small business brings money and jobs into our community this influences the economy. This business also offers childcare so parents of the children can go to work and bring more money into their families and then they can invest in and purchase local goods

3. I did not go to this preschool but it is local to my secondary school and I pass it everyday and think about where I went to preschool.
