Teacher: Ramsay Course: AP Human Geography Period(s): 2 and 5 Week of: Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Learning Goal(s): Maps and map types Strengths and weaknesses of various maps Geographic information provides context for understanding spatial relationships and human– environment interaction. Geographical concepts include location, place, scale, space, pattern, nature and society, networks, flows, regionalization, and globalization. Landscape analysis (e.g., field observations, photographic interpretations) provides a context for understanding the location of people, places, regions, and events; relationships; and interconnections between and Geographic information provides context for understanding spatial relationships and human– environment interaction.

Standards or Frameworks: AP Learning Objectives Explain the importance of geography as a field of study Explain major geographical concepts underlying the geographic perspective. Use landscape analysis to examine the human organization of space. Use spatial thinking to analyze the human organization of space. Use and interpret maps. Apply mathematical formulas and graphs to interpret geographic concepts. Use and interpret geographic models. Use concepts such as space, place, and region to examine geographic issues. Interpret patterns and processes at different scales. Define region as a concept, identify world regions, and understand regionalization processes. Explain and evaluate the regionalization process. Analyze changing interconnections among places. Learning Objectives Explain the importance of geography as a field of study Explain major geographical concepts underlying the geographic perspective.
