Geography isn't all about maps and graphs. Part of geography is understanding how land is used and how people interact with the place.
This video shows how annotation works and why we do it.
Other things to note when looking at a photo that are missed in this video are:
What kind of green spaces are there? Why might this be?

Below are two different photos of areas in New Zealand. They are both used by humans but for quite different things and the impact humans have had on each spot is quite different. After analysing two photos, you will be asked to compare and contrast the photos. Make sure you use evidence from the photo to support your answers when needed! Be sure to use specific details. For example, don’t just say “a tree.” Be descriptive and say “a coconut palm tree.” (or whatever the tree may be).
Your job is to annotate and analyse them using the worksheet below.

Teacher notes: this document has two tabs for the two photos, each photo has the same questions but demonstrates the different use of the land. You may want to do this as split into groups with some focusing on annotation and some on analysing or you could have students doing it individually

Urban growth means a city or town getting bigger in size and having more people living in it. This happens in two main ways: more people move in or are born there (population increase), and the city spreads out over more land (spatial expansion).
Look at the pictures and explain how cities growing bigger can harm the environment & people. Think about the problems this causes, what effects they have, and how we could fix or manage them.
