What children learn in Level 13
- The Coastal Plain covers more than half of Georgia: the whole south. Long ago, the ocean covered this land, so the soil is sandy and flat.
- Flat land is great for farms. Farmers grow peanuts, cotton, pecans, and sweet Vidalia onions.
- The Okefenokee Swamp is home to alligators, turtles, and birds.
- Along the coast are beaches and islands, and the busy port city of Savannah.
