2  Equator-An imaginary line that runs through the Earth.  Latitude-Runs East to West but is measured North to south.  Longitude-Runs North to South but is measured East to West.  Degrees-stage in a scale of intensity or amount.  Compass-instrument for determining directions  Cardinal Direction- North,South,East,West.  Intermediate Direct- Northeast,Northwest,Southeast,Southwest.

3 Intermediate –Now we are going southeast of our house when are we going to get there so I can go to sleep. Cardinal- We are going North of the Gulf of Mexico. Examples of Intermediate and Cardinal Directions

4 longitudelatitude  Imaginary lines east or west from the prime meridian.  It is located 20 degrees away from the prime meridian.  Imaginary lines north or south of the equator.  It is also located 20 degrees except not away from the prime meridian.

5 Step.1: Label the equator, prime meridian, and cardinal directions. Make blank coordinates. Step.2: Find the latitude. Check if its North or South of the Equator. Fill in first coordinates. DON’T forget degrees! Step.3: Find the longitude. Check if its East or West of the prime meridian. Fill in second coordinate. Don’t forget degrees! Step.4: Check to see if your fingers touch. Check if the quadrant matches the directions in coordinate Ex: 30 degrees South and 165 degrees East.

6  Used to locate places.  Used for finding things.  Used to figure out where you are.  Use it for direction.  The Military uses it.  Ships use it.
