today in class we continued to learn about population pyramids. I learned about how you can learn things about an area by the pyramids shape and why some ages have more people than others. for example you can tell when there is a military town because there is a large population of young men. also you can tell when it is a college town because there is a large number of boys and girls in there early twenties. I also learned that in japan and countries where the old population it much larger than the new that they are going to have a lot of problems later because there population is going to decrease a lot and there not going to have enough young people to do jobs that are needed. then we went on a website and I liked it a lot. it showed you the triangles for countries. it helped because it told you the amount of people in age and helped you compare different ages. also you could look at what they predicted it would look like in later years. I liked this because you could see how areas are going to improve and what ones are going to have problems in later years. I like learning about population pyramids.

situation

today in class we finished going over site. I learned that site characteristics are important. For example its important if there is mountains if you want to build a house because you will want the ground to be level if your building homes. Also I learned that people can change the site. For example you can fill a river with land and other things and make more land so you can build more things and develop new land. Lastly we learned that areas are being built on so much that they are flooding because there isn't enough grass and enough drainage for the water to go when it rains a lot or there is a hurricane. Next we learned about situation. Situation means the location of a place relative to other places. Situation helps us find an unfamiliar place by comparing its location with a familiar one. For example a lot of people have been to Florida and they know that it is really hot and then it rains for about an hour and then stops , but not a lot of people have been too Mississippi bu...
