1. What have we done in Geography so far?

So far this year in Geography, I learned about:

1. Settlement: I learn that settlement is where people establish a permeant community.

2. different types of settlements: I learned about different types of settlements, such as hamlets, villages, towns, and cities. I learned how they differ in size and population.

3. site and situation: I learned that site means the physical features of a place, while situation means its location in relationtoother places. These factors help explain why people choose to settle in certain areas.

4. land use, and land-use issues: I learned how land is used for housing, farming, businesses, and industry. I also learned aboutproblemssuch as pollution, overcrowding, and the loss of green spaces.

Overall, I learned how settlements develop, why people choose certain places to live, and how land is used. I also learned that human activities can cause land-use issues and affect the environment.

Taipei Settlement Factor presentation

We studied the Taipei Basin to understand how the Ketagalan people lived and how they used the rivers, land, and natural resources. We learned where they settled and how the arrival of Han settlers changed their land, language, culture, and way of life. We also studied how Indigenous people continue to live in Taiwan today and preserve their traditions.

Taipei Indigenous Groups Pamphlet

We studied the Taipei Basin by making a trifold pamphlet about the Ketagalan people before, during, and after Han settlement. I researched where they lived, how they used the rivers and land, and how Han settlers changed their land,language, and way of life. I also learned about Indigenous communities today, their traditions, and the challenges theyface.
