    Extractions: Project One, Two, Tree PROJECT DETAILS Overview One, Two, Tree is a Rhode Island Geography Education Alliance initiative which is funded, in part, by a grant from the National Geographic Society Education Foundation. One, Two, Tree is an interdisciplinary project that creates a unique partnership between school and community to address one of the most important issues facing Rhode Island - the protection and preservation of our community forests . In One, Two, Tree geography, science, environmental studies, and state of the art technology join forces to deal with this important topic. In order to plan for the future and protect its community forests from the consequences of rapid development, Rhode Island towns must first identify the characteristics of their existing tree resources. A tree inventory specifies the location, species, and condition of the community’s "urban umbrella." In One Two, Tree students from across Rhode Island will inventory trees located on the grounds of their schools and create databases to record collected information. Those databases will, in turn, be mapped and analyzed in ArcView, a powerful GIS (Geographic Information System) program. In the project’s culminating event, students will make an Arbor Day presentation to town officials. In that presentation, students will summarize the analysis of their school study area and present the town with a tree database (tree inventory) that can be expanded indefinitely to meet the needs of the town’s community forestry plan.

    Extractions: Abbreviation: RI The exact origin of the state name is unknown. Roger Williams and a group of religious followers founded the town of Providence in what is today known as Rhode Island after their banishment from the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Williams believed in the importance of liberty of conscience, which became an important principle in the founding of Rhode Island and ultimately in the founding of the United States. Rhode Island is the 13th of the original states of the Union (1790). Rhode Island is the smallest state in the United States. In spite of its size (3,140 sq. km), it is nevertheless an important industrial state. Rhode Island lies on beautiful Narragansett Bay, an arm of the Atlantic Ocean. Tourists come to Rhode Island coastal resorts each summer to enjoy boating, fishing and other water sports. The annual Newport Music Festival is held in late July and early August.

    Extractions: Encyclopedia Rhode Island, state, United States Rhode Island is the smallest of the 50 states and except for New Jersey the most densely populated. The dominant physiographic feature of the state is the Narragansett basin, a shallow lowland area of Carboniferous sediments, extending into SE Massachusetts and, in Rhode Island, partly submerged as Narragansett Bay . The bay cuts inland c.30 mi (50 km) to Providence, where it receives the Blackstone River; it contains several islands, including Rhode Island (or Aquidneck), the largest (and the site of historic Newport); Conanicut Island, with the resort of Jamestown ; and Prudence Island. The coastline between Point Judith and Watch Hill is marked by sand spits and barrier beaches, sheltering lagoons and salt marshes. Glaciation left many small lakes, and the rolling hilly surface of the state is cut by short, swift streams with numerous falls. Although more than half of Rhode Island is covered with forests, it is highly urbanized.
