1 Five Themes of Geography Social Studies Unit Name: Section: 0
2 The Five Fundamental Themes of Geography Geography Is the study of the earth, Of land and sea, And volcanic birth. First, there s Location, That is where a place is at, Located on a map grid With a longitude and lat. Involved the earth and sun, Legends, scales, and globes, And map projections. Location can also be rather relative, That s the distance and direction From the place where I live. That s the first theme Of geography; It s strictly fundamental To you and me. The second theme Is the theme of Place. It s a study of landforms And the human race, Of flora and fauna, Climate and hydrology, How people make a living, And the local industry. Is it a town or a city? What s the ideology? Is it a good place to live? Is it the right place for me? Human interaction with the air, sea, and land; The third basic theme Deals with the world and man, Excessive pollution And hazardous waste, Resulting from greed And thoughtless haste. Humans using resources, Such as timber and coal, Making high technology The primary goal. Building lakes and dams And patrolling men s pollution, Conserving and preserving Are still the best solution. Movement Is the fourth theme In geography. Voyages of discovery On the land and sea. Modes of transportation Such as plane, rail, and bus, Migration and trade And their effects on us. Global interdependence And spatial efficiency, How to get from here to there, And from sea to shining sea. The fifth theme is Regions, North, south, east and west. Traits they have in common Help them pass a region s test. A region may be political, Landform or climatic, Religious or ethnic, Such as Slavic or Islamic. The corn belt is a region, And so s the coastal plains, The Appalachian Mountains, And the tropical forest that rains. Now I know the five themes Basic to geography. Each one of these themes Relates geography to me. So when I look at cities, Oceans, deserts, and the sea, I ll have a better sense Of the subject geography. 1
