1 Longitude and Latitude

2 Objectives Students will be able to identify lines of latitude on a map including Students will be able to identify lines of latitude on a map including EquatorEquator North PoleNorth Pole South PoleSouth Pole Antarctic CircleAntarctic Circle Tropic of CancerTropic of Cancer Arctic CircleArctic Circle Tropic of Capricorn.Tropic of Capricorn. Students will be able to identify lines of longitude on a map including Students will be able to identify lines of longitude on a map including Prime MeridianPrime Meridian

3 Objectives Students will be able to locate all four hemispheres including Students will be able to locate all four hemispheres including Northern HemisphereNorthern Hemisphere Southern HemisphereSouthern Hemisphere Eastern HemisphereEastern Hemisphere Western HemisphereWestern Hemisphere Students will be able to identify which line divides the earth into the correct hemispheres. Students will be able to identify which line divides the earth into the correct hemispheres. Students will be able to find locations on map using longitude and latitude. Students will be able to find locations on map using longitude and latitude.

4 Signing Latitude Latitude: Latitude: “I'm climbing the Ladder of latitudes, latitudes, latitudes.“I'm climbing the Ladder of latitudes, latitudes, latitudes. I'm climbing the ladder of latitudes, all around the world.”

5 Longitude

6 Signing Longitude Longitude: Longitude: “It's a LONG, LONG way from pole to pole, pole to pole, pole to pole It's a LONG, LONG way from pole to pole, so we call those LONGITUDES.”

7 Match Longitude and Latitude Another name for lines of longitude Meridians States that border Ohio Indiana, Michigan, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Kentucky Direction that meridians run North and South The four cardinal directions North, East, South, West Direction that parallels run East and WestSouth Pole90 S Another name for lines of latitude ParallelsNorth Pole90 N Major line of latitude at 0 Equator Equator divides Earth into Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere Major line of longitude at 0 Prime Meridian Prime Meridian divides Earth into Eastern Hemisphere and Western Hemisphere
