Unit 1 - Geography

Hello class!

           As you know by now, we have started on our first unit. This unit will take a detailed look into the geography of  North Carolina. We will learn about the Mountains, Piedmont, and the Coastal Plain. We will look at major bodies of water and what their significance was in North Carolina History. We will discuss the Native American tribes that first occupied these areas, and we will then look at early European settlement. We will also study the agriculture of each of these areas. 
             I thought I would share a couple of interesting maps with you, as well as a couple of great educational links. While I encourage that you check these websites out, I urge that you stay only on these specific sites and do not follow any other links. Remember, when using the internet for research, safety is always the most important factor.
