Here is a copy of one of our smartboard pages from the unit. You might find it helpful when thinking about NCEA exam questions on ‘Differences between countries’ and ‘Differences within countries’. Tomorrow I hope to post some specific details about each factor for the United States and Tanzania. Until then….
Hey Team, How is the study going out there. If you have some questions, ideas or just want to vent your frustration, add a comment to this post. Things at school have been real busy, but I have some time now to add more revision material for you. Keep checking and commenting.

I feel some podcasts coming on - any requests?
I went along to the exhibition that Roy and Lynn talked about in class —> It is fantastic! The exhibition features HEAPS of large-scale aerial photos showing crazy things happening in the world. They have blocked off a lane of The Strand (where all the bars and restaurants are) and set up the photos with interesting captions and facts - as well as lighting for night-time viewing. It would make a great free family outing - day or night.
It would count as revision if you went with geography goggles on. Think about the ‘Important Geographic Ideas’ and the natural and cultural processes you can see in the photos. My favourite was one taken in Chile. It shows lush pasture with grazing animals minding their own business, but menacing black sand dunes are rolling in and slowly but surely claiming the arable land with the process of desertification.
