Learning Objective: To understand compass directions

2. Learning Objective: To understand compass directions
Have if you seen one of these before?
Do you recognize it?
Have they used one before?
What are compasses?

3. Learning Objective: To understand compass directions
People have been navigating with magnetic compasses for the best part of 900 years and we still use them today to help us to read different types of maps.
To follow directions on a map we need to know where North, South, East, West are.
On most maps North points towards the top of the map.

6. Learning Objective: To recognise continents and oceans.
Earth is made up of land and oceans/seas. Who can come up to the globe and show where there is water and where there is land?

7. Learning Objective: To recognise continents and oceans.
Earth’s surface (crust) is like a jigsaw and it slides around on an extremely hot liquid called magma (what comes out of volcanos).

8. Learning Objective: To recognise continents and oceans.
The largest plates help us to divide the Earth into continents. We also split the water around the continents into oceans. There are seven continents and five oceans.

9. Learning Objective: To recognise continents and oceans.
Earth is a sphere but we use a 2D map to help us see the whole world at the same time.

Task Time! Task 1 with class teacher
We and see are going to look at a map. We are going practice learning and locating world’s continents and oceans: One child collect continent card, you then have to place on top of a continent on a large map. Repeat until all continents are completed. Repeat same process with ocean.
