Despite being 20 minutes late for class, Elle arrived with a great attitude, ready to learn. We began the lesson talking about the history of Florida, from Spanish claims starting with Ponce de Leon in 1513 to FL becoming a state in 1845, the Apollo space launch in 1969, the opening of Disney World in 1971 and as of 2015, FL surpassing NY State in population as now the third most populous state in the US. We discussed/reviewed the concepts of: Latitude, Longitude, Hemisphere, Scale, Physical Maps, Political Maps, Movement, Culture, Primary Sources, Government and Democracy. We concluded the lesson with a introduction of the FIVE THEMES OF GEOGRAPHY: Location, Region, Place, Movement, Human-Environment Interactions.
