Essential Elements of Geography: Environment and Society

Directions:

The theme of human-environment interaction investigates the relationship between people and their environment. How do people use their environment and how does the environment influence how people live? To answer this, students are to demonstrate how environment affects the type of structures people build as homes.

Objective: Build a structure to withstand the outside environment.

Material:  Ready Student
Popsicle Sticks
Glue (do not use krazy glue)/ Hot glue with parental guidance

Procedure
1. Design (draw) a model of the building structure to be created. Be sure to consider that this shelter will remain outside for three days to test its ability to withstand the natural environment (swampy). (Design must be included.)
2. Construct your design using material.
3. Take a picture of the finished product before it goes outside and after the three days.
4. Place the structure outside in a secure area. Monitor every day for three days.

Timeline Tutoring

If you are struggling with your timeline and need an additional lesson, please make plans to attend Timeline tutoring sessions on Tuesday, Sept. 25th, from 4:10- 5:00. It is my intention to make sure you understand how to complete this project due on Monday, Oct 1st.
