American FactFinder (U.S. Census) Arkansas, The "Land of Opportunity" Abbreviation: AR The early French explorers of the state gave it its name, which is probably a phonetic spelling for the French word for "downriver" people, a reference to the Quapaw Indians and the river along which they settled. Arkansas, which joined the Union in 1836, was the 25th state. Arkansas' early economy was largely one of agriculture, with cotton as the main cash crop. Sawmilling was the earliest industry. Cotton and lumber are still important, but they no longer dominate the economy. Today, Arkansas' manufacturing income exceeds its agricultural income, but the state's basic wealth is still in its farms, forests, and mines. Arkansas is a beautiful land of mountains and valleys, thick forests and fertile plains. The Ozark and Ouachita mountain ranges in northern and western Arkansas are known as the Highlands; the southern and eastern parts of Arkansas are called the Lowlands. Tourists enjoy the state's natural beauty, its many recreational facilities and its historic sites. Arkansas' mineral and hot spring waters are well-known.

33. The Six Natural Regions Of Arkansas | Arkansas Delta Cultural Center: Missisippi Most of the major cities of the arkansas Delta can be found on or near Crowley sRidge. By studying the landscape and geography of arkansas, we can make http://www.arkansasdeltageography.com/natural_regions/

A lthough Arkansas is most easily divided into two distinct geographical regions, the northwestern uplands and the southeastern lowlands, this description does not accurately portray the state's geographical complexity. There are actually six geographic sub-regions, three in both the uplands and the lowlands. The northwestern uplands are made up of three distinctive sub-regions: The Ozark Mountains, the Arkansas River Valley, and the Ouachita Mountains. The southeastern lowlands are comprised of the Gulf Coastal Plain, the Mississippi Alluvial Plain (the Delta), and Crowley's Ridge. The Ozark region of Arkansas is located in the extreme northern and western portions of the state. This area is marked by flat-topped mountains, or plateaus, which have been eroded over millions of years. The Arkansas Ozark region is very poor with rocky soil and has done much to shape the image of the state. The Arkansas River Valley is the area carved by the river long ago. This forty-mile wide trough divides the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains. Most of Arkansas larger cities can be found in the river valley-Fort Smith, Little Rock, and several others. The Ouachita Mountains lie south of the river valley. These mountains run east to west and are largely covered in pine trees. The soil here is even worse than that of the Ozarks. There are many unusual features here including Hot Springs and the diamond crater at Murfreesboro.

One of the most important things is to have fun! Below are some activities to help you study ARKANSAS. You may choose to do all, some, or none of the activities. You can also alter the activities to better suit your individual child's needs. Some of these activities overlap each other, choose the one you think that you and the children will enjoy most. The main point of this unit is to make learning about ALABAMA and enjoyable for all who are participating. Arkansas' State Flag A diamond on a red field represents the only place in North America where diamonds have been discovered and mined. The twenty-five white stars around the diamond mean that Arkansas was the twenty-fifth state to join the Union. The top of four stars in the center represents that Arkansas was a member of the Confederate States during the Civil War. The other three stars represent Spain, France and the United States, countries that had earlier ruled the land that includes Arkansas. Flag adopted 1913.

The Census Bureau produces population estimates for the Nation, the States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, counties and equivalents, incorporated places, minor civil divisions, consolidated cities, census regions and divisions, and metropolitan areas. Census Regions and Divisions Counties (and equivalents) Minor Civil Divisions Legally defined county subdivisions are referred to as minor civil divisions (MCDs.) MCDs are the primary divisions of a county. They comprise both governmentally functioning entities that is, those with elected officials who provide services and raise revenues and nonfunctioning entities that exist primarily for administrative purposes, such as election districts. Twenty-eight states and Puerto Rico have MCDs. However, the MCDs function as general purpose governmental units in all or part of only twenty states. Within these twenty states, PEP produces estimates for all governmentally functioning MCDs and for nonfunctioning MCDs in counties that contain at least one functioning MCD. The legal powers and functions of MCDs vary from state to state. Most of the MCDs in twelve states (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Wisconsin) serve as general-purpose local governments. In the remaining eight states for which PEP produces MCD level estimates (Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, and South Dakota) the MCDs, for the most part, perform less of a governmental role and are less well known locally, even though they are active governmental units.

Contents Chapter Two FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA Geography and regional characteristics high temperatures on a given day in the United States to reach 70 degrees Fahrenheit (about 40 degrees Celsius). The United States owes much of its national character and its wealth to its good fortune in having such a large and varied landmass to inhabit and cultivate. Yet the country still exhibits marks of regional identity, and one way Americans cope with the size of their country is to think of themselves as linked geographically by certain traits, such as New England self-reliance, southern hospitality, midwestern wholesomeness, western mellowness. This chapter examines American geography, history, and customs through the filters of six main regions: New England , made up of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. The Middle Atlantic , comprising New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland. The South , which runs from Virginia south to Florida and west as far as central Texas. This region also includes West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, and parts of Missouri and Oklahoma. The Midwest , a broad collection of states sweeping westward from Ohio to Nebraska and including Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa, parts of Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas, and eastern Colorado.

ARKANSAS GEOGRAPHICA FORMING AND DEVELOPING AN AP HUMAN GEOGRAPHY PROGRAM Paul Gray, Russellville High School paul.gray@rsd.mail.k12.ar.us When I first formed My AP Human Geography course, many parents and students asked the same question: What is Human Geography? AP Human Geography allows students to learn about world population issues, border disputes, and international conflicts. In addition, students are exposed to economic theories and models as well as world religions and the origins and diffusion of languages. They also study urban development, industrialization, and city planning, often experiencing these topics through field trips. Overall, AP Human Geography students and teachers will explore topics ranging from farming to pandemic disease. AP Human Geography really does offer something of interest to everyone. Many teachers do not think they can teach AP Human Geography. The main problem many face is a lack of formal training in geography. Arkansas does not require prospective social science educators to take much geography. If one is a committed teacher and willing to learn, then AP Human Geography offers many wonderful opportunities and challenges. Becoming an AP Human Geography teacher requires following a few steps. First, perspective teachers should attend an AP Human Geography Institute. There they can learn tips on teaching the course from experts who have already taught it. Prospective AP Human Geography teachers can get later refresher training at a one- or two-day AP Conference. Second, teachers should use the printed and electronic resources available from the College Board. Third, teachers can use the Arkansas Geographic Alliance for further assistance. Fourth, teachers can take a geography course or two to help along the way. Finally, you can contact me for information.
