CONTENT STATEMENT
The work that people do is impacted by the distinctive human and physical characteristics in the place where they live.
CONTENT ELABORATION
The human and physical characteristics of places impact the work that people do. The physical environment constrains human activity.
Some locations are better than others for a specific kind of work (e.g., farming requires fertile soil and sufficient growing seasons, fishing and shipbuilding occur in coastal regions).
Human characteristics include language, religion, and population distribution (e.g., manufacturing and service jobs are located near urban areas because of the proximity to workers and consumers).
Physical characteristics include landforms, climate, soils and hydrology.
EXPECTATIONS FOR LEARNING
Explain the connection between the work people do and the human and physical characteristics of the place where they live.
