Climate, Physical Features and Natural Resources Sketch Notes

The most interesting thing I learn about, climate, physical features and natural resources is that they all equally have a big impact on the people who may settle in an area. For example if in one area there are enormous mountains and lots of natural gas, cows and diamonds and the climate was continental climate the people will not settle there. That is because it will be hard to trade and that will affect their standard of living. I am most proud of the part in my “Physical Features” section where it has a picture of mountains, rainforests and deserts saying away from mountains, rainforests and deserts. I am proud of this because I believe it shows that people don’t want to live their and it is a very good way for me to remember what places people don't prefer to settle.  

Sketch Notes on Trade and Globalization

The most interesting part of globalization and trade was the negative impact. I never thought about something that helped this world in great ways would also have downsides to this. For example people's rights were abused, I would have not thought about the people who work harder and longer they should help the countries who are struggling than they physically can. The part where I have the two factories one in Asia and the other in North America connected by links is the part that I am most proud of because I like the way it show what a multinational  corporation is and how it works. Also I like that the factories show both a negative side and a positive side. The negative side was the pollution and the positive side was the fact the goods were being evenly developed in both continents.

Afghanistan Standard of Living

A country's standard of living doesn't show how everyone in that country lives. Because some people live rich and wealthy and others live poor. The people who are poor don't have good jobs and lots of luxuries. The people who live rich get luxuries and good high paying jobs.  Overall a country's standard of living shows how the population as a whole is doing not each individual person or family.  

The most interesting thing I learned about standard of living was the fact that countries had a dramatic difference in standard of living. That 2 counties that may have been right next to each other were so different, one would be poor and living in poverty and the other would be rich and powerful. Also that you could figure out a country's standard of living by using 5 categories. You can figure out the living of the country's population by using wealth health education infrastructure and leisure time.  

I think that countries with a high standard of living should devote more time helping the countries who don't. For example the Unites States should be working to help Mexico improve their standard of living. The countries with a high standard of living are doing very well and not struggling, so they should help the countries who are struggling.
