Natural Vegetation Regions

The US is divided also in natural vegetation regions, by thinking about the main kinds of plants that grow naturally in certain areas.

1. Needle – Leaved Forests.

2. Broad - Leaved Forests.

3. Mixed needle – leaved and broad – leaved forest.

4. Grasslands.

5. Shrubs.

6. Tundra.

In the coastal plains, needle –leaved trees (like the pine) very often mix together with broad –leaved trees (like maple). Forests of broad leaved trees generally cover the Appalachian Highlands and the Eastern plains.

The Great plains are grasslands, and low shrubs grow on the weastern plateau.

Needle – Leaved trees grow over large part of the Rocky Mountain and the pacific Mountain Region.

Tundra is a low, swampy plain near the Artic Ocean. The vegetation is made up of grasses and low flowering plants.

LandForm

The region whose eastern edge touches the coastal Plain in many places is called the Appalachian Highlands. The Appalachian Highland region has high hills and low, rounded mountains. The Highlands touch the waters of the Atlantic Ocean in the north. To the south, they form a barrier that separates the Coastal Plain from a third region called the Eastern Plains. The Eastern Plains Region is made up of flat lands or gently rolling hills. These plains surround the Great Lakes in the northcentral United States.

The Great Plains Region, to the west of the Eastern Plains, stretches from the Canadian border in the north to the Mexican border in the south. The Coastal Plains, the Eastern Plains, And the Eastern Plains, and the Great Plains from one of the largest stretches or flat land in the World.

West of the Great Plains is a large area of high land that can be divided in to two parts: the Rocky Mountain Region and the western Plateau Region.

The Western Plateau has some plains and some mountains.

The Rocky mountain region is an area of some of the roughest, highs peaks in the world. Except for a few passes that wind through the mountains for miles, the Rockies separate the Great Plains Region and the Western Plateau Region.

Along the coast of the Pacific Ocean, the Pacific Mountain Region runs from the Canadian border to the Mexican border. In some places, the mountains are very high and rough. In other places, large valleys lie between the mountains. Sometimes the valley floors are flat areas much like small plains.

Finally, two areas that are part of the United States are not physically joined to it. They are the areas called Hawaii and Alaska.

The island called Hawaii are the tips of giant mountains. Their bottoms are on the floor of the Pacific Ocean. People generally think of them as being part of the Pacific Mountain Region.

Alaska is a peninsula with four kinds of landform:

Pacific Mountain, Central Highland, the brooks Mountain Region, and a think band of flat land called the Arctic Plains Region.

leisure time

Leisure time: hours free from work, time that people can use as the see fit.

More than 70 years ago, moot workers worked about fifty-nine hours per week in the United States.

In the 1970’s the number of hours on the job sometimes dropped below forty hours per week.

That is almost twenty fewer hours spent at work than in 1900. As time passes, we might see workers on the job even less than that, they have more leisure time.

The Land

Land form regions:

The American land is like the American people: diverse people divide it into parts called regions.

Regions: The United States may be divided into landform regions.

Landform: areas that have the same types of land throughout.

In the United States:

From east to west: most of the land near the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of the Mexico is plain.

North: The coastal plains region is rocky

South: Sandy

In some places, great swamps stretch for hundreds of miles.

Away from coast, the soil is rich and red.

Homework: make the map of the Landform Regions- United States.
