Situation

Today we talked about situation which is the location of a place relative to another. It's important for two reasons: 1 finding an unfamiliar place and 2 understand its importance. We also talked about what places need to do to add homes or other buildings. Such things include cutting down trees, bulldozing, and getting the materials to actually make the buildings or homes.  We also checked to see where our belongings were made. Mr. Schick told us that Apple actually designs their devices here in the U.S. but manufactures them in China. I could only find where my composition notebooks were made and they were made in Vietnam. We learned that many places are important because they are accessible to other places. We even talked about trade and how it is through Singapore and how their trade goes through the Strait of Malacca and how it's a major passageway for ships coming from the South China Sea and the Indian Ocean. Today was a normal human geo class.
