Did you know that Pontiac, Michigan, and Pontiac cars are named after him? Hmmm … what’s in his hand? http://www.ohiohistorycentral.org/entry.php?rec=1857

  6. Moodle Reflection • Look at a relief map from NASA, based on photos taken from space! • Relief maps show high and low areas of land • Blue areas = water • Green areas = low areas of land • Yellow areas = higher land areas • So … the more yellow the area, the higher up the land is (like mountains) • The greener the area, the lower it is.

  7. Moodle Reflection • Compare the map on the next slide with the map in your book on page 51. • Explain where the Anishinabeg Indians came from and why they settled in different areas of Michigan. • Think about what they needed from their environment to survive. • How did geography affect their path?
