This lesson should be finished in two computer classes.The Canadian Shield is more than 2 billion years old. It consists of great volcanic mountains that were leveled by millions of years of erosion. It is the geographic foundation of Canada covering more than half of its surface area. <div> </div><div>1. Find a map of this region. Which provinces are in this region?

Why do you think the climate of this region will vary? Explain in 3-5 sentences. Look at the map of this region and think about it.</div><br /><div>Because this climate is quite near to the Bay,almost covers all the area sorround the Bay. The water makes the climate different.

Are there geographical regions in China or Korea? Explain in 3-5 sentences.</strong><br />There are eight major geographical regions.Tibetan Plateaus,Southwest,Maritime South,Lower Yangzi/South Central China,Northwest,Loess Plateau,North China Plain and the Northeast. They all have their typical things.<br /><br /><br /><strong>2. Post 3 pictures of China's or Korea's regional geography. It can be photographs. Explain each picture in 5-8 sentences.</strong><br /><br /><div align="center">Tibetan Plateaus</div><p align="left"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329929252402011778" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 211px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ3u5f8vCz0hoNUzGwYJahcBp2RMTsIEmiGBBcO2hdk3_In6Dx8PGC-0G5bmCXRCt9L4PWO92bnrUWzmt6RZiUgdlTuf1GKC6XWGx7G6rKBnoJIjRC9V15W-lmrX9NVr34OZ_9GtoOwQm4/s320/tibetan+plateau.jpg" border="0" />Tibetan Plateaus is a famous region in the world. It is 3500 by 1500 kilometers , averaging more than 5000 meters in elevation. It is the largest and highest region in the world. The Himalaya-Karakoram is here. This region contains not just Mount Everest, 13 other peaks are higher than 8000 meters, hundreds of 7000-meter peaks each higher than anywhere else on Earth. This is really a great area.<br /></p><p align="center"><br />The Yangtze river </p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329931307354583058" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5xKqolEXrCygEXZymkplvfD7DgsfQZ6sBgsmqWh5l-fr-jddh1lSKsyl1dTXx5UmBP8v75a5IOOCNN6P6Mzj34ncVgI-HKoYjOcMRTUaoNInjJiRgMQN0hZyxSBBmoRVBjNhKH1NqFifx/s320/W020070620336667639359.jpg" border="0" /><br /><p>The Yangtze river is 6,300 km long, it is the largest river in China, and the third largest in the world, next only to the Nile in Africa and the Amazon in South America. This region is much wetter than other places in China.It is called "golden waterway". From this name, I can know how Chinese like this river. the Yangtze is a transportation that links west and east. The middle and lower Yangtze River areas have a warm and humid climate.<br /></p><p align="center">Loess Plateau</p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329932596570174626" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 189px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgWGR231YD5_xY9x0ch8NILSamy87bfpWzMlL0b05YuxIQVPzxtuG9kon0Yef2v5vI2VhEtU9XR6fhVbbH8siAcfSu_gHdf0uwdI1SXpsr68o7EvmrSO2zCmSiJC_qaKEsAA-YLt3a_0pN/s320/TerracesLoessPlateau.jpg" border="0" />This is a traditional place, if you translate it from the Chinese name, it is called "Yellow soil plateau". As you can see in the picture, this region is very yellow... It is located in the middle of Yellow river, so people live in here is yellow, much darker than others. Lots of sand come from here. So Chinese are trying to grow more trees...<br /><br /><strong>3. What have you learned about regions so far? Explain in 5-8 sentences.<br /></strong><br /><br /><p>I learned about the regions in China. That is much more than Canada, but most of them are dirty... The 8 regions are Tibetan Plateaus,Southwest,Maritime South,Lower Yangzi/South Central China,Northwest,Loess Plateau,North China Plain and the Northeast. This is the real great China.<br />I'd rather learn about Canada than China, these 8 regions are similar.<br /><br /><strong>When you are done, you have free time!</strong></p>sunnyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09821084808900510956noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-994976425581563320.post-85018388290890480822009-04-27T18:44:00.000-07:002009-04-27T19:14:06.468-07:00Climate Continued!<div><strong>After learning about the topography of this region, we are going to look at the climate and vegetation of this region.</strong></div><br /><div><strong>The climate of the Interior Plains is a continental climate.

The area is dry.According to the <a href="http://projects.cbe.ab.ca/ict/2learn/kdwajda/canada/studentwork/plains.htm,Summers">http://projects.cbe.ab.ca/ict/2learn/kdwajda/canada/studentwork/plains.htm,Summers</a> can be between 10ºC and 30ºC. Winters are cold. January can be between -10ºC and -30ºC. I guess it is because of no ocean. Water can make the temperature different, if there's no water, it will be hotter.<br /><br /><strong>5.

Tell her three things. </div><div>1. Those pictures are very good, contain is specific. Comparing to mine, she could put more information in it. That will be better.</div><div>2. The information about hotels are all 5 stars. So if a poor guy wanna visit (like me)... So she may put different level 's hotel. That will be more convinient for everybody.</div><div>3.Those titles and words are clear. But some pictures aren't so clear. Next time, she may choose some bigger picture. </div><div>__ Perfect work!!!<br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div>sunnyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09821084808900510956noreply@blogger.com2
