KNOW YOUR BOOK
This textbook consists of five blocks with four lessons
each. It offers a wide range of knowledge geo-
tists and the ability to understand the place where you live and the world
around you, so that you recognize the geographical elements
tists that comprise it. Also, you'll appreciate the importance of their
conservation.
Each lesson begins with an email written by
children like you, whose purpose is to introduce the subject you will study.

Block
The climate is the set of atmospheric phenomena characterized
zan each region to Tier. This, like other components
natural, it can be altered by various natural factors,
as latitude, relief and water.
As you can see in the following scheme of climates,
due to the inclination with which l egan to sunlight
estre ter surface, different temperatures cause the
climate change from Ecuador to the poles: they are warmer in
low latitudes close to Ecuador, temperate latitudes in
very cold medium and between 80 ° and 90 ° of latitude.
The relief causes the temperature decreases (it gets colder)
or increase (become more heat), depending on the height of the reliefs. By
example, in high regions, such as the plateaus or the moun- mon,
the air layers are cooler than in anuran l; so the
climate and vegetation vary.
Water is just one of the factors that regulate the climate and modifications
fied vegetation. Large bodies of water, whether or seas
lakes, lose heat more slowly than the land masses,
so in the regions near the sea, are we less Winter
cold, since water retains heat longer; while
summers are cool, as the temperature of seawater

J:
Look, Pati, that is the largest paper mill
of our region. There produce cartons.
P:
How then they brought wood and water to them?
They will need more trees. Surely the driving-
They shall Sier to the North, because there the weather is cold and
They can grow forests.
J:
I think Val and bring to Santia-
go further down the river. There l ine much as
in sier to, but it is very hot, for
that there are several different plants and trees.
Let's get closer to see the wineries!
P:
Look: how much water enters the factory! Phew, that heat
and how ugly smells! Surely it is by moisture and
chemicals they use.
J:
I imagine you do use a lot of water and chemicals

P:
Yes, it is very useful, but they could do it without damaging the

My achievements
Read the story, remember what you learned in this block and Bull Run to
in a circle paragraph that answers each question cor ectly.
In US cities, Europe
and urban areas in Latin America there
where they live many population groups
Chinese, these places are known as
Chinese ios bar. The cities where lives an
greater number of the years are San Francisco
and California, in the United States, and Lima,
in Peru.
These Chinese companies, which Encoun-
tran outside their country of origin, are engaged
general commercial activities,
mainly to the restaurant business;
for example, in Peru there are chifas or
Peruvian food restaurants where
combine foods from both countries.
