a. Discussion
“ Why do we need to learned about geography ?”
“ Right ,Miss Picaza, Class we are studying ,
geography not only to aid in localization, but to
also analyze our surroundings and perceive them
in a different way.
Without our extensive study of geography
throughout mankind’s history, our world would be
a very different place, where no one would know
where to go and how to get there.
In fact, we would all be living like this without
geography”
“ Mr. panganiban , would you mind to define
what is geography? ”
“ Thank you , Mr. Panganiban”.
“ How about the physical geography and human
geography ?”
“ For us , to be known what is all about
geography and to be aware on what actions we
does ”
“ Geography is the one subject where we can
study about an area in detail. To live in a area we
should know the weather condition and
environmental condition of that area. So that we
can adopt to that area easily.”
“ Ma’am , the study of the physical features of
the earth and its atmosphere, and of human
activity as it affects and is affected by these,
including the distribution of populations and
resources, land use, and industries.”

the climate is part of both physical and human
geography. The main area of geography that looks
at the connection between physical and human
geography is called environmental geography.
Physical geography
Areas of physical geography include:
Geomorphology: the shape of the Earth’s surface
and how it came about
Hydrology: the Earth’s water
Glaciology: glaciers and ice sheets
Biogeography: species, how they are distributed
and why
Climatology: the climate
Pedology: soils
Palaeogeography: how the continents have moved
over time
Coastal geography: how the ocean and land affect
each other
Oceanography: the oceans and seas
Quaternary science: the geography of the last 2.6
million years, including the last ice age
Landscape ecology: how the landscape affects
things like the distribution of plants and animals
Geomatics: gathering, storing and processing
geographic information – for example, making
maps
Human geography
Areas of human geography include:
Cultural geography: how things like religion,

Development geography: standards of living and
quality of life across the world
Historical geography: how people have studied
