Cultural geography

To start off class, we got our tests back from the other day. After that, we started a new lesson about cultural geography. We learned that cultural characteristics are lessons and traditions you were taught by your parents and other family members. Examples are religion, language, and ethnic heritage. We looked at a picture of the united states that told us what different states called soda. Some call it coke, others call it pop, and we just call it soda. We also talked about how in Maryland, we eat crabs in big groups and think its completely normal because we grew up doing it but in other places it's rare which I thought was cool.
