Activities on Rural and Urban Areas to print

We selected some geography activities about rural and urban areas, ready to print and pass on to preschool and elementary school students (1 2 3 4 year).

People who live in the city form the urban community and people who live in the countryside form the rural community. In the urban community, there are many things in common, for example some services such as electricity, treated water and sewage, public transport, communication, banking network and a very varied trade.
In cities, houses or apartments are built close together. Teachers need to increasingly explain the importance of each zone, whether rural or urban. We have selected some explanations and some activities about urban and rural areas that can help teachers in the classroom.

Differences between Urban and Rural Areas

The countryside, also called the countryside, is the region outside the city.
People live in the countryside on farms, farms, etc.
Countryside houses are not built close together. Most people who live in the rural community work taking care of crops and livestock.

Those who take care of the crop are called agriculturists or farmers. They work the land, plant, harvest and sell the products. Those who raise animals such as oxen, horses, goats, pigs, birds are called ranchers.

The forms of entertainment and distraction for people vary greatly from place to place. It is very important that all people try to have fun and distraction in order to maintain their mental and physical health.

In cities there are ways for people to be distracted: cinemas, theatre, zoo, parks, television, etc.

In the countryside, where life is simpler and there are not many choices for fun, people have fun fishing, riding horses, bathing in the river, waterfalls, going to rodeos, dances, etc.
