Located entirely in the northern hemisphere it is bound by Pakistan, Afghanistan, China, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar and Bangladesh. The Arabian sea, the Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal border it's coastline. The mainland has three well-defined geographical regions, the mountain zone of the Himalayas, the Indo-gangetic plain, ( formed by the basins of three great rivers Indus, Ganga and Brahmaputra) and the southern peninsula of the Deccan Plateau. The main river systems are the Himalayan rivers like Ganga and Brahmaputra which are snow-fed; the peninsular rivers like Godavari, Krishna and Mahanadi; and the coastal rivers. India has a rich variety of vegetation and animal life, with special types of flora and fauna. The climate of the country varies from region to region. In some places, including the coastal areas, the climate is almost uniform throughout the year. There are quite a few places in the country which have a moderate climate, such as towns in the North of the country or Bangalore in the South. On the other hand most areas are very hot in summer.

Lying south of the Himalayas, these Great North Indian Plains consist of the Indus basin, the Ganga-Brahmaputra basin, and the tributaries of these mighty river systems. To the south of the Great Plains of northern India lie the Great Plateau of Peninsular India, which is divided into two parts, namely, the Malwa Plateau and the Deccan Plateau. The Malwa plateau bounded by the Aravalli hills in the northwest and the Vindhyas in the south form the northern half of this peninsula. The Chota Nagpur region forms the northeastern part of this plateau and is the richest mineral producing region of India. The valley of the Narmada River forms the southern boundary of this plateau. The Deccan plateau extends from the Satpura hills in the north to Kanyakumari, the southernmost tip of mainland India, finally ending in the Indian Ocean.

    Extractions: Geography The three ancient regions of Kerala. Kerala is a thin slice of land lying along India's southwest west coast. In length 360 miles, the state is only 20 to 70 miles in width and comprises 1 percent of India's total land. Most of its 30 million people live along a narrow strip of flat land adjacent to the Arabian and Lakshwadeep Seas to the west. To the east the land rises to form the scenic Cardamon Hills or the Western Ghat Mountain Range. Here small settlements, wildlife refuges, and spectacular-looking tea plantations dominate the landscape. The climate ranges from hot and humid in the coastal lowlands (80 degrees-90 degrees), to mild with cooler evenings in the hills. Yet every year, in the late spring and again in the fall, rain-bearing monsoons sweep the land, in some areas leaving some 200 inches of rain. Though densely occupied, Kerala is one of India's most beautiful of India's 28 states. It is also one of the most culturally interesting places in the world

Nothing seems to have been forgotten, nothing overlooked." Mark Twain, from Following the Equator I t is impossible not to be astonished by India. Nowhere on Earth does humanity present itself in such a dizzying, creative burst of cultures and religions, races and tongues. Every aspect of the country presents itself on a massive, exaggerated scale, worthy in comparison only to the superlative mountains that overshadow it. Perhaps the only thing more difficult than to be indifferent to India would be to describe or understand India completely. Set apart from the rest of Asia by the supreme continental wall of the Himalayas, the Indian subcontinent touches three large bodies of water and is immediately recognizable on any world map. It is the huge, terrestrial beak between Africa and Indonesia. This thick, roughly triangular peninsula defines the Bay of Bengal to the east, the Arabian sea to the west, and the India Ocean to the south.

    Extractions: Geography and Topography The Geography in the Indus River Valley was very good for farming. The good soil was provided from the irrigation canals which brought water to the farms. The fertileness of the land also led to a very big risk of diseases. Their soil was also good for farming because the Indus River floods yearly. The area of the land in India is 1,269,345 sq. miles, and the Indus River is about 1,800 miles long. The mountains that are around the Indus Valley are some of the biggest in the world. All of these things make the Indus Valley stand out even more from the other civilizations. The elevation of India's highest was mountain level, 25,645 feet, and the lowest was sea level. The temperature ranged from thirty-two degrees F to one-hundred degrees F. The rainfall was between five and twenty inches.

    Extractions: MAP FACT SHEET VISITNG INDIA India's Geography With a total land area of 3.3 million square kilometres, 2933 kms wide and the 3214 kms long, the Indian sub-continent is set apart from the rest of Asia by the towering Himalayas to the north. From the Himalayas, one comes down into the Indo-Gangetic plain, then crosses over the Vindhyan mountains to enter the Deccan Peninsula, bounded by the Bay of Bengal to the south-east and the Arabian sea to the south-east, with the southern-most tip projecting into the Indian Ocean. The Deccan plateau is the oldest portion of India, geologically speaking, and is believed to have been part of a super-continent together with S. America, Africa, Australia and Antarctica. As the continents drifted apart, the moving Deccan plate collided with the Tibetan block of South Asia about 50 million years ago and the Himalayas up out of the sea and up against the rest of Asia. Over the years, the persistent pressure of the Deccan drifting northwards pushed the Himalayan mountains upwards, a process which geologists say is still continuing, causing earthquakes and tremors in the Himalayan ranges as the accumulated stress is released. As the Himalayas rise, they are also steadily being eroded by the three great rivers of Northern India - the Indus, the Ganges and the Brahmaputra. The alluvial soil brought down by these rivers filled up the vast depression between the Deccan plateau and the Himalayas and created what is the Indo-Gangetic plain today. Other rivers at work in India, transforming the land, include the Mahanadi, Godavari, Krishna, Kaveri and the Pennar which created the deltas and flood-plains of India's east coast, and the Narmada, Tapti, Sharavati, Netravati, Bharatapuzha, Periyar and the Pamba which did the same for the west coast.

The Himalayas: The Himalayas form a natural boundary in the north. They are not a single range, but a number of parallel chains of mountains with deep valleys between them . They form the watershed of three major Indian rivers, the Indus, Ganga (Ganges) and Brahmaputra.- The Indo-Gangetic Plain: This lies at the foot of the himalayas. To the far west, in pakistan, it becomes the Indus Plain, to the southwest it becomes the great Indian or Thar Desert.

    Extractions: This is a 'long' unit. In it, children develop ideas about a less economically developed country. The unit is based on a photopack produced by ActionAid about the village of Chembakolli in India. However, alternative photopacks are available and the unit has been designed so that it can be used when studying other places. It can also be extended to include other ideas, eg weather and climate in different parts of the world. Help children compare the roles of family members here and in India, using this worksheet. Children can ask members of their family to fill in their daily timetable, or enter their own. A follow-up lesson back at school could focus on comparing the timetables and finding similarities and differences.
