 * 5 Themes of Geography**

Recently you have been studying the 5 Themes of Geography and how it applies to the world around us. I am challenging you to use this knowledge to answer the driving question.

"**How can you increase tourism in our area using the 5 Themes of Geography**?"

Use the following information to help answer the driving question:
 * Location (Where it is?)
 * Place (What do people do there?)
 * Human/Environment Interaction (How does the envirnoment change what people do?/How do people change the envirnoment around them?)
 * Movement (How do people, goods and ideas move from one area to another in that place?)
 * Region (What are the similarities and differences in the place that make it unique from other places?)

Chose one of the following activities to present you information:
 * Use publishing software to create a promotional flyer featuring our community using one of the five themes listed above.
 * Create a poster depicting the benefits of visiting our area. (Either on the computer, hand-drawn or digital pictures printed out and glued to a poster board including text.)
 * Create a slide presentation promoting the features of their selected theme.


 * Final projects will be reviewed be members of the** Downtown DuBois Revitalization Group. **
