1. Latitude and Longitude (This should be review)

2. Latitude (parallels)
Latitude lines are imaginary lines which run east and west.
They tell how far up (north) you can go or how far down (south) you can go.
Tip: to help you remember that latitude lines run east and west, think of them like the rungs of a ladder.

4. The northern hemisphere…
…and the southern hemisphere

5. The lines of latitude are numbered from 0° (at the equator) to 90° at the north and south pole.

6. Longitude
Longitude lines are imaginary lines that run from the north pole to the south pole.

7. When you think of longitude, think of long, tall telephone poles (because longitude lines run from pole to pole). Longitude lines run north and south, but they tell how far east you can go or how far west you can go.

8. The Western Hemisphere… …and the Eastern Hemisphere.
The prime meridian is 0° and runs through Greenwich, England. It divides the earth into two hemispheres.
The Western Hemisphere…
…and the Eastern Hemisphere.

10. Finding any place on the earth…
Any point on the earth can be indicated using the lines of latitude and longitude. The latitude is always given before the longitude.
