The Five Themes of Geography
p. 003
1. Location(p.xxxii) – tells us where in the world a certain area is
a. absolute location (p.xxxii) – is an area’s point of latitude and longitude
b. relative location (p.xxxii) – describes where an area is in terms of other areas
2. Human Environment Interaction(p.xxxii) – describes how people affect their
surroundings and vice versa
3.
5)
Region(p.xxxiii) – any area that has common characteristics
a. can be physical or cultural
4.
6)
Place (p.xxxiii) – indicates what an area looks like in physical and human terms
5.
7)
Movement
(p.xxxiii)
– the transfer of people, goods, and ideas from one place to another

1.
8)
equator (p.xxxv) – the line of latitude midway between the North and South poles
2.
9)
latitude
(p.xxxv)
– imaginary lines that circle the globe from east to west, measuring an area’s
distance north and south of the equator (always comes first when giving directions)
3.
10)
longitude(p.xxxv) – imaginary lines that circle the globe from north to south,
measuring an area’s distance east or west of the prime meridian
4.
11)prime
meridian (p.xxxv) – the line of longitude at 0 degrees that runs
through Greenwich, England
5.
12)
hemisphere (p.xxxv) – half the globe; the globe can be divided into Northern and Southern
Hemispheres (separated by the 13) equator (p.xxxv)) or into Eastern and Western Hemispheres
(separated by the 14)prime meridian
(p.xxxv))
rose (p.xxxv) – indicates the direction on a map
6.
15)compass
7.
16)
legend/key (p.xxxv) – explains the symbols, lines, and special colors on the map
