Brilliant. Why aren't there many cities in the rainforest then?

Luke

11:02

because there are beaches and rivers for fresh water

George

11:02

there is a big rain forest in the middle, called the Amazon

Josh

11:02

The middle is the rainforest and it's easy to access food

Alex

11:02

The city's are lighting up

Jazmin

11:02

to protect the habitats of different animals

Louis

11:02

cuz there are dangerous animals nor deforestation

Lily

11:03

Is it because its a large place so it's easier to get food a packages than tacking them right tk the centre

Eva Wright

11:03

Because the north coast was found by actual people

Amelia Ashton

Because of the rain forest

Joseph A

Hollie

Because it has lots of trees and plants

Aoife

11:03

Mr Fairhurst

Fantastic. How else might being near the sea have helped a city develop over time? What benefits are there by being located by the sea or a river?

Sylvie

11:04

it could be cold there

Grace

11:04

maybe there are deadly animals and plants

Isla

11:04

Imports and the food gets their faster cause it usually shipped

Grace

Eva Wright

11:06

there are trees only in the middle so maybe people are chopping trees down

because of shipments of food from other countries

Aoife

11:06

beach and they might eat alot of sea food

Amelia Ashton

11:06

They can get food by fishing

Mr Fairhurst

11:07

Looking at this image we can see that there are some cities/towns in the middle of the rainforest. e.g. Manaus. Why do you think these have developed?

Josh

11:07

To grow the crops

Isla

11:07

There are animals in the sea that the could eat to keep them alive

Louis

11:07

Water source

Alex

11:07

If you near the sea and the boats and reach you, you can have plenty food and water to trade with other countries.

Joseph A

11:07

you can get water easily so there will be a few fish

Eva Wright

11:07

They could find atlantis

Jack

11:07

so they don't have to walk back and fourth for water

Eva Wright

11:08

With transportation

Jazmin

to make sure the animals are well
