What children learn in Level 12

The Piedmont stretches across the middle of north Georgia. Piedmont means foot of the mountains: it's rolling hills.
The soil is red clay. Stone Mountain, a giant dome of granite rock, rises up out of the Piedmont.
More people live in the Piedmont than any other region. Atlanta, our capital, is here.
Where the Piedmont meets the Coastal Plain is the Fall Line. Rivers rush down there, and long ago that water ran mills. Columbus, Macon, and Augusta grew up along it.
