    - - The edge of the map
    - - Where the map has been taken from, (who made it)
  - - - measure in degrees and minutes east or west of the Prime Meridian

- - - - Change refers to the processes, both human and natural, that take place on a local and global level.
  - - - Environment means the living and non-living things in an area as a whole.
  - - - Interconnection refers to the links between all living and non living things, on a local or global level.
  - - - Place refers to an area on earths surface that is given meaning by people

- - - - Temperature is the measure of heat, (in hass)
    - - (measure in mm) is the amount of rain that falls each month
  - - - a region with mild temperatures
    - - A tree that sheds its leaves annually
    - - A biome found on land
    - - The Tundra is typically a flat and treeless region of land that has a layer of permafrost- the underlying layers of soil are permanently frozen.
    - - The taiga also contains permafrost under the soil layers. Bedrock can be found under the permafrost; which causes water to accumulate. There are many swamps and bogs located in the taiga.
    - - Temperate forests are generally characterized by mild climates (not extremely hot or cold). Temperate forests can fall into separate categories such as temperate coniferous forest or temperate deciduous forest.
    - - Very fertile soilGrasslands are exactly what you would guess they are: land covered with grass. Grass is the dominant plant (trees and shrubs only make up about 10% of the flora).
    - - AKA Tropical Grassland - less rainfall than grasslands, but more rainfall than a desert.
        Lots of grasses, spotted with trees.
    - - A dry barren land, usually covered in sand.
    - - Rainforests that are close to the equator are considered tropical,
