LO1/LO2
The buildings in the background are of signs for just salad, steak,
etc. There arent a variety of options that they can choose from. They
also seem like they have a concerned look on their faces.
Not necessarily. We dont see building that have just steak, or just
potatoes. We are able to get all of the things listed in that photo in a
grocery store.
That certain areas specialize in a product that they are able to
produce high quantities for.
Its good that they can produce high quantities of this product. It can
provide higher living standards for people if they are efficient in
production. It may be bad though if they have to have a high reliance
on others to provide them with the products they are lacking.
LO2/LO3
China would have the highest specialization in products since they are
exporting the most products.
The net importers such as the United States, Japan, and France may
not have as many desirable resources they can produce and
specialize in. Since China has the highest amount of exports, this may
mean that they have the most desirable resources. The United States
may be scarce in products that they rely on China for.
Station 3:
The map below shows the
routes of the Silk Road.
The Silk Road was an
ancient route that led to
much discovery of
different cultures,
traditions, and products.

Based off of this map, regions were able to have access to many more
products than they did before they traded. With more access, it
helped other regions learn and grow from other cultures. Today, we

This cartoon shows how much we rely on other countries for our
products. The United States (portrayed by Uncle Sam) is very reliant
on imports and the cheap prices they can get their products for. Since
we receive so many imports, the majority of products that we are in
possession of are from other countries. We are very interdependent
on other regions and global trade.
I agree with the message being portrayed because we saw that the
United States is highly reliant on imports. We want to get the best
deals, so we are going to purchase our products from the cheapest
resource. We need to rely on other regions that are efficient with
specializing in these products. Specialization in products leads to
global trade.

Planned Supports
Language Function: Constructing written
responses from the documents they were required
to analyze. Analyzing of political cartoons, graphs,
and interactive videos.
Vocabulary: Constructing definitions of terms from
documents presented, opportunities to use the
terms in written work and discussion, and terms
included in on written prompts.
After looking through all of the documents at the stations, we would end there and continue with the
essay question tomorrow (day 4). The question presented at the conclusion (poll everywhere) will
continue to gather their thoughts about the essay question that will be given to them the following
day.
