Changing Our Physical Environment

How do we change our physical environment to meet our needs?

• dig: to make it flat so our buildings don't fall or collapse
• fill: ditches, holes, water areas
• tear down: plants and trees

Example of change: Education

• Pleasant Hill Intermediate School
• on a hill
• plains
• grassy
• we didn't change it at all

example of change: food

• Pleasant Hill Dollar General
• rocky
• almost flat, some grass areas, mostly gravel
• filled the area with dirt and then gravel
• built up the area surrounding with dirt, created a dip for entrance

example of change: water

• rivers used to flow through Pleasant Hill
• we created man-made lakes for drinking water

Example of Change: Shelter

• 2202 Alexandria Ln. Pleasant Hill, MO
• almost flat, to get rid of a hill they dug it out
• they filled a ditch with dirt
• took out rocks in the land
