The major land forms are of lowland and highland.
The highland is higher land up in to the Mountains. Low
lands are lower land down in the Mountains or in
swamps. The last one is the Appalachian Mountains. The
natural resources of the south east that were used in the
past are Iron ore, that was used to make steel in the
1800’s. The natural resources of the South East region
today are resource supplied by nature. The geographic
features that other regions don't have are the Atlantic and
the Gulf. The last thing is that the South East has the
Everglades. The elevation of the South East is from sea
level (Everglades) to ten thousand feet high (Appalachian
Mountains).
Because the African Americans grew

four different kinds of famous music. One is
delta blues Tennessee is famous four that one,
another is Dixieland jazz New Orleans is
famous four that one, blue grass, and Cajun
music. These are the southeast regions famous

the music.
The early settlers in the South East region
were the African Americans and the Gees Bend
people. The African Americans settled to grow
and pick tobacco because they were forced to,
they did not have a choice because they were
slaves. A person named Mark Pettway brought
100 slaves to Gees Bend. After the Civil War
the slaves were free and most of the African
Americans stayed and Whites left. The early
settlers of the region that used the natural
resources are the African Americans.
The resources that the southeast does to
make a living is planting fruit, growing cotton,
and using the oil rigs. The early settlers of the
south east made slaves grow and pick Tobacco.
Now in days there is no slaves and anybody
how wants to grow pick and sell Tobacco can.

Tampa bay:
Baton Rouge:
Montgomery:
The severe weather Tampa bay has is floods, and
Hurricanes, Baton Rouge has thunderstorms and
Hurricanes. Montgomery has bad tornadoes, bad
thunderstorms. Hurricanes are formed by moist air
rising up to hit warm air to form a hurricane.
Tornadoes are formed by warm air and cold air.
When they hit each other they spin to make a
tornado.
Thunder storms are formed by moisture,
unstable air and lift. You need moisture to form
clouds and rain. You need unstable air that is
relatively warm and can rise rapidly. The
weather instruments used to predict a storm is
they use scales. They have Tornadoes scale and
a hurricane scale. The scales have numbers, the
higher the number the worst the storm will be.
Next to the numbers they have how fast the
winds will be. They also use satellites to now if
a storm is coming.
