“CELEBRATING OUR PAST, CREATING OUR FUTURE”

1
Social Studies 2024

PART 1 – INTRODUCTION / GEOGRAPHICAL SPACE

1. Understanding How Things Work: We learn about the basic physical systems
of the world and how they impact our daily lives. For example, we study how the
sun provides heat and life on Earth, and how wind and ocean currents affect the
weather. This helps us predict and prepare for extreme weather and use
Earth's resources wisely.

2. Exploring Cultures and Places: We explore different cultures, where people

live, and how their location and climate influence their way of life. This helps us
understand both the differences and similarities we share with people around
the world.

3. Geography in History: We study how geography in different time periods

played a role in people's lives, environments, and ideas. Geography is a key
player in our history, shaping the world we live in today.

4. Getting to Know Our World: We learn about different places on

Earth, understanding both their cultural and physical
characteristics. This knowledge helps us be more productive and
effective in our globally connected world.

5. Understanding Society: We explore why we live where we do and how

urbanization has changed the world. We seek to understand why some areas
grow while others don't, helping us recognize ideal living conditions.

6. Global Interdependence: We learn about the growing interdependence of the

world. Technological developments in transportation made the world smaller, and
societies now rely on resources from other places. Understanding areas suited
for agriculture or rich in natural resources helps us to comprehend global
cooperation.

7. Caring for Our Home, Earth: We develop an appreciation for Earth as our
home and understand its limitations. Knowing the available resources helps us to
be responsible, managing and caring for our planet.

2
Social Studies 2024

Geography is like a
big puzzle that
helps us
understand the
world around us.
It's about
exploring where
things are, why
they are there, and
how they affect
each other.

Geography helps us learn about different places, the people who live there,
and the land they call home. It's not just about maps and locations; it's also
about the weather, the environment, and how people live and work in
different parts of the world.

3
Social Studies 2024

So, in simple terms, geography is all about discovering and making sense of
our amazing planet Earth!

A geographer is like a detective of the Earth. They study and explore the world to
understand how it works. Here you will find the 5 tasks that a geographer does:

1. Maps and Places: Geographers make maps to show where things are. They help
us find our way around and learn about different countries, cities, and
landscapes.

2. Weather and Climate: They look at the sky and study the weather.
Geographers help us know what kind of weather to
expect in different places and why it's different.

3. People and Culture: Geographers are curious

about how people live and what makes each place
special. They study cultures, traditions, and how
people use the land.

4. Earth's Changes: When things on Earth

change, like mountains forming or rivers shifting, geographers are there to
figure out why it's happening and what it means for the environment.

5. Solving Mysteries: Geographers are like detectives trying to solve the

mysteries of our planet. They ask questions and use clues to understand why
things are the way they are.

In simple words, a geographer explores, investigates, and helps us understand

everything about our amazing world!

What Are the 5 Themes of Geography?

 Geographers organize information into five themes.

The five themes of geography are a set of

ideas that help us understand different
aspects of the Earth and they also help
geographers organize their thoughts and study
the Earth more effectively. 4
Social Studies 2024

1. Location:

 Describes where a place is on the

Earth.

 There are two types of location:

absolute (exact coordinates using
latitude and longitude) and relative
(where a place is in relation to other
places).

2. Place:

 Describes the physical and human characteristics of a location.

 Physical characteristics include

things like mountains, rivers, and climate, while
human characteristics involve people, their
culture, and how they use the land.

3. Movement:

Examines the ways in which


people, goods, and ideas move from one place
to another.

It includes the study of migration, trade,

communication, and the spread of cultures.

4. Region:

 Divides the world into smaller units for geographical study.

 Regions can be based on physical features, such as mountains or deserts,

or human characteristics, like language
or religion.

5. Human-Environment Interaction:

 Explores how people and their

environment affect each other.

5
Social Studies 2024

 It looks at how people adapt to their surroundings, change them, and how
the environment influences human activities.

1. Compass: A compass is like a magical arrow that helps you figure out which way
is north, south, east, and west. It's a useful tool to find directions.

2. Map: A map is a special picture that shows where things are. It helps you
understand where cities, mountains, and rivers are located. People use maps to
plan trips and explore different places.

3. GPS (Global Positioning System): GPS is like a super-smart

helper in your phone or car. Satellites guide you and show
exactly where you are on the Earth. It's like having a
high-tech map that talks to you and helps you find your
way.

4. Globe: A globe is a mini Earth that you can spin around. It shows the world in
3D, so you can see how countries and continents really look. It's a fun way to
learn about the whole planet.

To sum up, a compass tells you which way to go, a map is a picture of places, GPS is a
high-tech guide, and a globe is like a tiny spinning Earth to explore!

Reading a Map.

Most maps have nine features, as shown in the map below which help you understand
and read them better.

6
Social Studies 2024

1. Title: it tells the subject of the map and gives you an idea of what information
is shown.
2. Compass rose: it shows directions: north, south, east, and west.
3. Symbols: they represent such items as capital cities and natural resources. The
map legend explains what the symbols mean.
4. Legend or key: it lists and explains the symbols and colours used on the maps.
5. Lines of longitude: These are imaginary lines that measure distances east and
west of the prime meridian.
6. Lines of latitude: These are imaginary lines that measure distances north and
south of the equator.
7. Scale: it can be used to see the distance between two locations on a map.
8. Labels: they indicate the names of cities, landforms, and bodies of water.
9. Colours: they represent a variety of information on a map. The map legend
explains what the colours mean.

 A continent is a very large landmass which is usually separated by water or

other natural features, like mountains.
 There are seven continents in the world: Asia, Africa, North America, South America,
Antarctica, Europe, and Australia (Oceania)*

*Some 19th century definitions of Oceania grouped Australia, New Zealand and the islands of
Melanesia together under the label of Australasia, in other 19th century definitions of Oceania, the
term was only used to refer to Australia itself, with New Zealand being categorized with the islands
of Polynesia. The difference is based on scale. Australia is a country or continent. Australasia is a
location that includes Australia, New Guinea, New Zealand, and surrounding islands. Oceania is a
location that includes Australasia, Micronesia, Melanesia, and Polynesia 8
Social Studies 2024

The Americas are like a big part of our Earth, and

they are known as the New World! There are two
main parts: North America and South America, and
they have cool islands too. All together, they cover
8.3% of Earth's surface. People usually think of
Central America as part of North America.

When we say "American," it often means someone

or something from the United States, but it can
also mean anyone or anything from anywhere in the
Americas.

9
Social Studies 2024

A long time ago, people traveled from Asia and maybe Oceania to come live in the
Americas during a really cold time called the Ice Age. They were kind of separated
from the rest of the world until Europeans came between the 10th and 15th
centuries.

The first people in the Americas were like explorers, following big animals like
mammoths. Some might have even come on icy paths along the northern Pacific coast.

As time went on, the cultures of the first people here turned into awesome
civilizations, like the Iroquois in North America and the Quechuas in South America.

10
Social Studies 2024

PART 2 – CULTURAL AND POLITICAL ORGANIZATION

The Falkland Islands are an archipelago in the South Atlantic consisting of two main
islands, East Falkland and West Falkland, and a number of smaller islands.

What does and archipelago mean?

An archipelago is like a team of islands that stick together in the water. Picture a group of
islands hanging out as friends in the sea. Sometimes, they're formed by volcanoes or other
cool processes in the ocean. So, an archipelago is basically a bunch of islands having a big
water party, and they can be made in different ways.

They are administered as a self-governing overseas

territory of the United Kingdom from Port
Stanley, the capital and largest city, on East
Falkland. Argentina, however, claims the islands,
calling them by their Spanish name, Islas
Malvinas (and the derived Malvinas
Islands in English) and considers them part of
the Tierra del Fuego Province.

Why do we call them “the Falkland Islands” today?

A long time ago, in 1690, a captain named John Strong from England arrived
at the Falkland Islands. He found a place between the two main islands and
decided to give it a special name. He called it "Falkland Sound" after his
friend, Viscount Falkland, who was an important leader in the British navy.
So, the islands got their name because Captain John Strong wanted to honor
his friend.

Independent State:

 An independent state is like its own boss. It's a country that can make its own rules,
decisions, and be friends with other countries. Think of it as a place that runs itself.

Independent Territory:

 An independent territory is a part of a bigger country that gets to make some of its
own rules, but it still follows the bigger country's main decisions. It's a bit like having
your own room where you can decide how to organize things, but you still listen to your
parents for big stuff.

12
Social Studies 2024

So, an independent state is like a country that's totally in charge, while an independent
territory is a smaller part that gets to decide some things but still follows the rules of the
bigger country.

Provinces & Cities!

Argentina is divided into 23 provinces and one autonomous city, Buenos Aires, which also
serves as the federal capital. Here is a list of the provinces along with their capitals that you
will complete:

1. Buenos Aires (Province) –

14
Social Studies 2024

2. Catamarca - 13. Misiones -

3. Chaco - 14. Neuquén -

4. Chubut - 15. Río Negro -

5. Córdoba - 16. Salta -

6. Corrientes - 17. San Juan -

7. Entre Ríos - 18. San Luis -

8. Formosa - 19. Santa Cruz -

9. Jujuy - 20.Santa Fe -

10. La Pampa - 21. Santiago del Estero -

11. La Rioja - 22.Tierra del Fuego, Antártida e Islas

del Atlántico Sur -
12. Mendoza -
Additionally, the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires - Buenos Aires City (Ciudad Autónoma de
Buenos Aires) functions as a federal district and is the capital of the country.

Argentinian Regions
 Argentine Northwest: Jujuy, Salta, Tucumán, Catamarca
 Gran Chaco: Formosa, Chaco, Santiago del Estero
 Mesopotamia (or Littoral): Misiones, Entre Ríos, Corrientes
 Cuyo: San Juan, La Rioja, Mendoza, San Luis
 Pampas: Córdoba, Santa Fe, La Pampa, Buenos Aires
 Patagonia: Río Negro, Neuquén, Chubut, Santa Cruz, Tierra del Fuego

Nevertheless, there are different approaches to the Argentine regions. The Pampas are
often separated into Humid Pampa and Dry Pampas, and sometimes in Llanura
Pampeana and Sierras Pampeanas. Other geographical analyses include other defined regions,
being Comahue and Chaco Central among the most common.
Regardless of the regions system used, some provinces are shared by more than one region.
For instance, Southwestern Santiago del Estero is sometimes considered part of
the Sierras area, or even the Humid Pampa, while the Southern part of La Pampa is
sometimes called Dry Pampa and included in Patagonia. Finally, La Rioja is sometimes
considered part of Cuyo region instead of the Northwest.

1. Growing Crops: In rural Argentina, people grow

lots of different crops like soybeans, wheat,
corn, and sunflower seeds.

2. Taking Care of Cattle: There are also lots of

cows in rural areas. People take care of these
cows, and it's called cattle ranching. They use the cows to produce beef, which is a big
part of the food they eat.

 Rural areas

A rural area is an open space of land that has few homes or other buildings, and not very
many people.

A rural areas population density is very low. Many people live in a city, or urban area. Their
homes and businesses are located very close to one another. In a rural area, there are fewer
people, and their homes and businesses are located far away from one another.

Agriculture is the primary industry in most rural areas. Most people live or work
on farms or ranches. Hamlets, villages, towns, and other small settlements are in or
surrounded by rural areas.

Wildlife is more frequently found in rural areas than in cities because of the absence of
people and buildings. In fact, rural areas are often called the country because residents can
see and interact with the country's native wildlife.

Throughout the world, more people live in rural areas than in urban areas. This has been
changing rapidly, however. Urbanization is happening all over the world.

Shift to Cities
People are migrating to urban areas for many reasons, including agricultural
technology, industrial technology, and the hope of changing ones economic circumstances.

Agricultural technology has decreased the need for agricultural workers.

Improved transportation, tools, fertilizer, and
genetically modified crops mean fewer farm
workers harvest more food. This decreased need
for farm employment drives many farm workers
into cities in search of jobs.

Industrial technology has created many jobs

unique to urban areas. Developing countries often
have resource-based economies, meaning most
people make their living from
agriculture, timber, mining, or other harvesting

of natural resources. These natural resources are most often located in rural areas. As
developing countries expand the use of industrial technology, they often shift their focus to
a service-based economy. Service-based economies use industrial technology to
provide finished goods and services to people inside and outside their countries.

Native people in Argentina

In the past, indigenous people in Argentina faced many challenges. Their lands were taken
away, and they had to follow a different way of life and religion. They were treated unfairly,
and their traditional ways of living were disrupted. Even today, some people believe there are
no indigenous people left or that they live just like everyone else. This has led some
indigenous people to hide their identity to avoid discrimination. Sadly,
hurtful words and stereotypes are still used against them. It's
important to treat everyone with respect and understanding.

Indigenous people in Argentina face challenges in different aspects

of their lives:

Language:

 Many indigenous people speak their native languages, but some are losing their mother
tongue, especially among those who moved to cities. Efforts are being made to promote
bilingual education, but there's still work to be done.

Religion:

 Despite various attempts to change their beliefs, indigenous

communities maintain their ancestral religions. Some have
even blended their beliefs with other religions, like the Kom
(Toba) who created their own churches.

Rural Communities:

 In the Chaco region, where many indigenous groups live, deforestation and cattle
farming are causing problems. The indiscriminate cutting of trees and selling of state
lands disrupts their traditional ways of life, affecting their food sources and the
environment.

 In the central-south region, the Mapuche, Teheulche, and Rankulche people face
constant land invasion and theft. Multinational corporations are also pressuring
small local producers, making it harder for indigenous communities to recover
their lands.

 Oil contamination is a significant issue, affecting water sources

and harming the health of indigenous people, especially children and the elderly.

Despite these challenges, it's essential to support and respect indigenous communities and
work together for positive change. Every November, we observe Native American Heritage
Month to honor the history, contributions, cultures and lives of Native Americans.
