 * Students will be able to identify cardinal directions, North, South, East, and West, and locate this map element on a map.
 * Students will be able to identify and describe latitude, longitude, Equator, and Prime Meridian.
 * Students will be able to identify and label their location, and other locations, on a map and globe using cardinal directions, latitude, and longitude. ||
 * **NCSS Theme/Next Generation Sunshine State Standards ** || //SS.2.G.1.1: Use different types of maps (political, physical, and thematic) to identify map elements.//

 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Begin by having students play a quick round of the “What Am I?” game. The teacher will remind students how to play. The students at each table of 5 will choose one student to guess the continent or ocean that is stuck to that student’s forehead. The other 4 students will each provide one clue that describes the subject on the index card, after which the chosen student will guess what they are. A timer will be set for 5 minutes.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher will ask students to give some examples of how they described the subject of the index card.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher will tell students, “Today we will be learning about Cardinal Direction, latitude, and longitude which provide us with other ways to describe where a location is.”
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Each table is provided with a globe and a map.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher reminds students of the map elements, and points out the direction symbol labeled with N, S, W, E.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher asks students if they know what any of those mean.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher explains that each of those letters stands for a cardinal direction. N is north, S is south, W is west, and E is east. Each of these is a direction that describes where something is. North on a globe or map is always up, while South is down. West is on the left and East is on the right.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher has the students observe the horizontal and vertical lines that run across the globe, and shows them that maps have them as well.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher displays a large map at the front of the classroom, easily seen by all students.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher explains that the lines running up and down, North and South, are lines of longitude, and that the lines going across, West and East, the globe are lines of latitude. These lines form an imaginary grid on the map or globe that help pinpoint locations of places on Earth.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher has students observe the numbers in degrees on the map and globe and explain that lines of longitude and latitude are expressed in degrees.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Have students locate 0 degrees longitude line on the globe or map.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher shows on large map where it is and explains that this is called the Prime Meridian.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Have students locate 0 degrees latitude line on globe or map.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher shows on large map where it is and explains that this line is called the Equator.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher provides handout for students to keep in their social studies binder that visually represents these concepts and defines key terms. A crossword puzzle worksheet is handed out for students to work on if they have free time.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;"> Teacher shows them how to locate places on the large map using directions such as, the ocean that is to the right of the US. The continent north of the US. Students find these locations on their maps as well. Also, have students locate a certain degree line of latitude or longitude such as, 30 degrees longitude or 60 degrees latitude.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;"> Teacher uses the blow up globe to toss to students to find on it the place the teacher states by using north, south, east, west, latitude, and longitude.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;"> Teacher uses cards from “What Am I?” game and has students describe the card by using cardinal directions, latitude, and/or longitude.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher has students find their home on globe or map.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Students describe their location using cardinal directions, latitude, and longitude.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Students create their own “What Am I?” riddle, incorporating cardinal direction, latitude, longitude, Equator, and Prime Meridian to describe the country, continent, or ocean that they choose.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Teacher collects riddles.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Congratulate students on creating such great riddles. Remind students again of the different cardinal directions, north, south, east and west, longitude, latitude, Equator, and Prime Meridian, using the large map to show each.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Students fill in what they have learned on their KWL chart.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Students will review their entire KWL charts as a small group at their table. Teacher also prompts students to not only look at what they have learned but to see if they have gotten an answer to anything from the W, of what they wanted to learn.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">Students choose a representative from each table to share with the class some things that they have learned.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 120%;">The students will accurately be able to describe a continent, country, or ocean with 80% accuracy using cardinal directions, latitude, longitude, Equator, and Prime Meridian to describe it, demonstrating their understanding of these terms and their ability to utilize them on a map and globe ||
