Social Science Test Unit 4

You will have one more Social Science test before the break-- Unit 4.  It will be Wednesday, 5th April.

You will have to write the definitions of the vocabulary (inlet, peninsula, gulf, cape, island, fjord, ría).

You must know the boundaries of Europe (seas, oceans, mountains, continent).

You must describe the topography of inland Europe (it is relatively simple!)  and of the European coastline (two parts).

Where are the plains?  What are Massifs? Where are they located?   What are plateaus? Where are the highest mountain ranges? Give some examples.  And the smaller mountains?
