2 “Where does it hurt?” “Order in the court!” “Would you like fries with that?” Match the Phrase with the profession and tool Who would say… “The forecast is more cold!”

3 But what about geographers? “Why is what where?”

4 World Geography - The study of the earth and the ways people live and work on it. Uses all sorts of tools, technology and sources Is Everywhere! Uses the Questioning Model Uses Spatial Analysis

5 Why is this geography?

6 The Questioning Model WHAT? Students must figure out the WHAT… What is happening? What is the event? What is the issue? HOW? Students must figure out the HOW… How is it occurring? How does the process work? WHY? Students must explain the WHY… Why is this happening? Why is this important? BUT WHY?

7 Practicing the Questioning Model Step 1 – WHAT? Choose a picture in any magazine and determine the WHAT? What is happening? Or What is the event? Or What is the issue? Step 2 – HOW? Determine the HOW? How is this occurring? How does the process work? Step 3 – WHY? Determine the WHY? Why is this happening? Why is it important? BUT WHY? Step 4 – Putting it all together. On the paper provided – attach the picture chosen. Answer the What? How? and Why? below the picture. Write the names of your group members at the bottom.

14 Spatial Analysis Frayer Model Spatial Analysis Definition: Three questions associated with spatial analysis: Three examples of spatial analysis: Visual (picture) of spatial analysis:
