Place tells us what a location


is like. It is divided into two
parts, physical and human
characteristics.

In class, we made a bar


graph about the temperature
in a specific city. I chose
Jakarta because it is where I
live. We also went on a walk
about and took photos of
human and physical
characteristics.

The temperature is lowest


around July to August. I
think this is because it is the
start of the wet season so it
is usually lower in
temperature. The hottest
time of the year is around
January till June which is
usually the dry season
(changes because of global
warming).
