Speech and Language Virtual Learning Speech and Language Virtual Learning Social Studies Vocabulary May 2020 Social Studies Vocabulary Lesson Lesson: May 2020 Objective/Learning Target: The student will learn basic Social Studies Curriculum Vocabulary and apply these skills in activities provided. Background Information: Semantic skills involve understanding and being able to use vocabulary to describe and categorize the items in the world around us. This lesson focuses on Social Studies Vocabulary for directions on a map. Word Targets: Map, Globe, Cardinal Directions, North, South, East, West Let’s Get Started: Here are the definitions for these words. Map: This is a picture or drawing of a land area. Globe: This is a model of the Earth that is round. Cardinal directions: Cardinal directions or cardinal points are the four main directions or points of the compass: north, east, south and west. These direction are also written in short form as N, E, S and W. North and south are directed towards the north and south poles of the Earth. The Earth's rotation defines east and west. North: This is the direction that is the opposite of south. South: This is the direction that is the opposite of north. East: This is the direction that is the opposite of west. West: This is the direction that is the opposite of east. Remember: The four directions are : North, South, East and West North and South face each other. East and West face each other. West is to the left of north and east is to the right of north. Warm up: Check out these songs for the cardinal directions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2I81_BFb-s Get up and move with this one! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCXqlAH7ekQ Question: How do I know which direction I am facing? Answer: The sun always rises from the east and sets in the west. So if you know which direction the sun rises in the morning, that is the east. If you stand facing east, exactly opposite east and behind you will be west. Stretch your hands horizontally. Your left hand will face north, and right hand will face south. We also use tools called a compass and GPS to tell us what direction we are going. Question: Why do we need maps and cardinal directions? Answer: We use these when - 1. We are driving and need to know what way to go. 2. When we give someone directions to go someplace. 3. When we are trying to find where places are. 4. When we are reading a map. 5. When we are learning about the world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Te0Td0QVoj0 Quick game: Pick a room in your house and find north south east and west. Have an adult help if needed. Now follow along with the the students in this video to play a game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sA1jBb5Cqeg Let’s give it a try! Look at the following picture of a house you could vacation in. There are 4 activities you could do. 1. You could go to the pool to swim. 2. You could go to the playground. 3. You could go to the lake for some fishing. 4. You could go to McDonalds for lunch. Use the compass to find which direction you need to go to get to the different places. Tell someone in your house what direction you would go. Check your work: 1. To get to the pool you would go east. 2. To get to the playground you would go south. 3. To get to the lake you would go north. 4. To get to McDonalds you would go east. This one is a little harder. We live in the state of Missouri. Which direction would you go to get to the following states? 1. Iowa 2. Arkansas 3. Kansas 4. Kentucky Check your work: We live in the state Missouri. Which direction would you go to get to the following states? 1. Iowa - North 2. Arkansas - South 3. Kansas - West 4. Kentucky - East Tricky Stuff: Most of the time you will not go in a straight line to get somewhere. You might go a direction that is between north, south, east, and west. When you do this you would look and the two directions and starting with either north or south combine the words: (northwest, northeast, southwest, southeast.) Northwest Northeast Southwest Southeast Warning!! Sometimes your directions will change with the roads or change roads themselves. The road might start out going north and curve east or you might go south on one road and turn west onto another. More Questions: Which word from the box best completes the following sentences: Map Cardinal directions Globe North South East West 1. North, south, east and west are found on a compass and are called _____________. 2. I need to look at the ___________ to find out how to get to Texas. 3. The sun will rise in the____________. 4. The sun will set in the_____________. 5. The ___________ shows us a round model of the Earth. 6. North is the direction that is opposite ______________. 7. South is the direction that is opposite ______________ . Answers: Map Cardinal directions Globe North South East West 1. North, south, east and west are found on a compass and are called cardinal directions. 2. I need to look at the map to find out how to get to Texas. 3. The sun will rise in the east. 4. The sun will set in the west. 5. The globe shows us a round model of the Earth. 6. North is the direction that is opposite south. 7. South is the direction that is opposite north. Go tell someone in your home the words that you have learned. 1. Was the lesson? Easy Just Right Hard **Additional Practice: Get the address to a friends house. Take a walk or drive from your house to your friend's house. Tell the direction you are going on the roads to get there.

  • Recent North Magnetic Pole Acceleration Towards Siberia Caused by flux Lobe Elongation
    Recent north magnetic pole acceleration towards Siberia caused by flux lobe elongation Philip W. Livermore,1∗, Christopher C. Finlay 2, Matthew Bayliff 1 1School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds, Leeds, LS2 9JT, UK, 2DTU Space, Technical University of Denmark, 2800 Kgs. Lyngby, Copenhagen, Denmark ∗To whom correspondence should be addressed; E-mail: [email protected]. Abstract The wandering of Earth’s north magnetic pole, the location where the magnetic field points vertically downwards, has long been a topic of scien- tific fascination. Since the first in-situ measurements in 1831 of its location in the Canadian arctic, the pole has drifted inexorably towards Siberia, ac- celerating between 1990 and 2005 from its historic speed of 0-15 km/yr to its present speed of 50-60 km/yr. In late October 2017 the north magnetic pole crossed the international date line, passing within 390 km of the geo- graphic pole, and is now moving southwards. Here we show that over the last two decades the position of the north magnetic pole has been largely determined by two large-scale lobes of negative magnetic flux on the core- mantle-boundary under Canada and Siberia. Localised modelling shows that elongation of the Canadian lobe, likely caused by an alteration in the pattern of core-flow between 1970 and 1999, significantly weakened its signature on Earth’s surface causing the pole to accelerate towards Siberia. A range of simple models that capture this process indicate that over the next decade arXiv:2010.11033v1 [physics.geo-ph] 21 Oct 2020 the north magnetic pole will continue on its current trajectory travelling a further 390-660 km towards Siberia.

  • Direction In
    What is meant by Direction ? Direction is the information contained in the relative position of one point with respect to another point without the distance information. Directions may be either relative to some indicated reference, or absolute . Direction is often indicated manually by an extended index finger or written as an arrow. On a vertically oriented sign representing a horizontal plane, such as a road sign, "forward" is usually indicated by an upward arrow. ASKING FOR ? DIRECTIONS How do I get to...? How can I get to...? Can you tell me the way to...? Where is...? GIVING DIRECTIONS Go straight on Turn left/right (into … street).

  • The Names of Wind -Summer 2009
    The Names of Wind ccording to the Western Abenaki of New England, the winds of their world Awere generated by a giant eagle that lived on a craggy peak and flapped its wings continuously. Various nomadic tribes of central Asia had a comparable myth. They believed that the wind originated from a vast hole in a mountain somewhere to the west. And the Inuit of Alaska thought that the winds issued forth from an opening in the sky. Here in the West, we believe that the wind is generated by the mother of all earthly things, our own star Sun. According to our legend, the sun beats down on the equatorial tropics, heating the air, which subsequently rises high into the stratosphere, creating a vacuum all along the equator. Because of the physical phenomenon known as the Coriolis effect, air from both the north and the south rushes in to fill the space, thereby creating, because of the rotation of the earth, the ever-reliable trade winds. This basic system is much complicated by landforms such as deserts and mountain ranges, which churn and blend the moving airs, creating a variety of local winds. Some of these such as the foehn are warm dry winds that flow down the lee side of the mountains. Some, such as the sirocco, are bred in deserts and drawn northward by low-pressure areas. Many of these local winds are notorious for their strength as well as their effect on the human psyche, and most of them are named, a fact that has added to the rich tapestry of languages.

  • Regional Fact Sheet – North and Central America
    SIXTH ASSESSMENT REPORT Working Group I – The Physical Science Basis Regional fact sheet – North and Central America Common regional changes • North and Central America (and the Caribbean) are projected to experience climate changes across all regions, with some common changes and others showing distinctive regional patterns that lead to unique combinations of adaptation and risk-management challenges. These shifts in North and Central American climate become more prominent with increasing greenhouse gas emissions and higher global warming levels. • Temperate change (mean and extremes) in observations in most regions is larger than the global mean and is attributed to human influence. Under all future scenarios and global warming levels, temperatures and extreme high temperatures are expected to continue to increase (virtually certain) with larger warming in northern subregions. • Relative sea level rise is projected to increase along most coasts (high confidence), and are associated with increased coastal flooding and erosion (also in observations). Exceptions include regions with strong coastal land uplift along the south coast of Alaska and Hudson Bay. • Ocean acidification (along coasts) and marine heatwaves (intensity and duration) are projected to increase (virtually certain and high confidence, respectively). • Strong declines in glaciers, permafrost, snow cover are observed and will continue in a warming world (high confidence), with the exception of snow in northern Arctic (see overleaf). • Tropical cyclones (with higher precipitation), severe storms, and dust storms are expected to become more extreme (Caribbean, US Gulf Coast, East Coast, Northern and Southern Central America) (medium confidence). Projected changes in seasonal (Dec–Feb, DJF, and Jun–Aug, JJA) mean temperature and precipitation at 1.5°C, 2°C, and 4°C (in rows) global warming relative to 1850–1900.
