This lesson explores the ways people interact with the environment and the effects geography has on daily life. The activities are engaging for students & the guided, 5-E format is easy for you to use! Fill-in notes accompany the lesson. First, introduce big idea vocabulary words, then lead a “Move It” warm-up to explore the differences between adaptations & modifications. The “I Spy…” and “Stickman’s Travels” activities challenge students to find and classify examples of human-environment interactions in real-world photographs. Finally, evaluate learning with a “GSI: Geography Scene Investigation” activity. Students examine a region’s geographic features, then analyze how humans might adapt or modify the environment to best suit their needs.
