Lesson Sequence

APK: Revisit the Big Questions. Provide students with the following imaginary scenario. Students are lost at sea, in a small

life boat, in the Pacific Ocean, during a horrific storm. Students (whole group or small group), brainstorm a list of items needed for survival on a lifeboat until rescued. Which items would be the most valuable? Why? Students narrow the list to five items then discuss/share rationale for items selected by whole group/small groups. Modify list as desired/needed. If not mentioned by students, ask – What tool(s) should be taken to assist them in being found? Examples: A Global Positioning System (GPS) and a two-way radio. Continue the discussion until the students grasp the importance of being able to describe their exact location.

Concept and vocabulary review and introduction: Choose one of the following activities.1) Teacher uses overhead transparency of vocabulary graphic organizer to model its use. Using the Vocabulary graphic organizer, students write the word meanings and draw a representation for the vocabulary words while the teacher, with student assistance, completes the organizer on the overhead. 2) Hyperlink to Vocabulary foldable cards and games.

NI: Give students a piece of paper and direct them to draw horizontal/latitudinal lines and then

vertical/longitudinal lines to form a grid

1.3.3

What have you drawn? A grid There is an imaginary grid that covers the Earth so that any point can be located using

the grid. The lines of the grid are lines of latitude and longitude. Students use flat wall map of the world, world desk map, or atlas to view the grid. A specific location where lines of latitude and longitude cross or intersect is called an

absolute location. Given a continent, country, state, city; a relative location can be found and the general

position of latitude and longitude. With a specific address and specialized equipment and tools the precise or absolute

location can be found. This can be demonstrated using the following hotlinks. http://www.worldatlas.com/aatlas/imageg.htm Check several links from this page, many do not require an account. Find the latitude and longitude of most USA cities HERE use this link or this link at the page above.

http://www.lat-long.com/ alternate/additional link

A compass rose is a figure displaying the orientation of the cardinal directions, north, south, east and west on a map or nautical chart. Identify the compass rose on the Big Question poster and locate cardinal directions on

the wall map.

The lines that circle the globe from east to west (horizontal lines on a flat map) are called lines of latitude. What do you notice about the lines of latitude? Do lines of latitude ever touch each other? No. Why or why not? Where?

o Lines of latitude are parallel to each other. o What does this mean? They are the same distance apart at all the times just like

railroad tracks. They never intersect with each other. Are all lines of latitude the same length? Why or why not?

o Lines of latitude appear horizontal on a flat map but are actually circular with different radii, diameters, circumferences. All locations with a given latitude are collectively referred to as a circle of latitude. Relate to circumference. This can be illustrated using a string and a globe.

o Which circle of latitude is the longest? Why? Relate to circumference. o Which circle of latitude is the shortest? Why? Relate to circumference.

Each line of latitude is measured in degrees from the equator (degree symbol - ° , 20°).o The equator is the circle that is equidistant from both the North Pole and South

Pole. o The equator divides the planet into a Northern Hemisphere and a

Southern Hemisphere, and has a latitude of 0°. How many degrees there are in a circle? 360°

o Using the globe and beginning at the equator run a finger around the globe going through the south and north pole before returning to the equator.

How many degrees would there be if we went half way around the globe? 180° o Using the globe and beginning at the equator run a finger around the globe going

through the south pole and stopping half way around the globe on the equator on the other side.

How many degrees are there from the south pole to the equator? 90°o Using the globe and beginning at the south pole run a finger to the equator

1.3.4

How many degrees are there from the equator to the north pole? 90°o Using the globe and beginning at the equator run a finger to the north pole.

How many degrees are there from the north pole to the equator? 90°o Using the globe and beginning at the north pole run a finger to the equator.

How many degrees are there from the equator to the south pole? 90°o Using the globe and beginning at the equator, run a finger to the south pole.

Add and multiply the degrees to demonstrate the 360° circumference. Using a wall map and desk maps or atlas, students locate/identify degrees of north and

south latitude. o What is the line of latitude that is halfway between the equator and North Pole?

How many degrees of north latitude is this? 45° north latitude What countries are at the 45° north latitude?

o What is the line of latitude that is halfway between the equator and South Pole? How many degrees of south latitude is this? 45° south latitude What countries are at the 45° south latitude?

The lines that circle the globe from the north pole to the south pole (vertical lines on a flat map) are called lines of longitude. What do you notice about the lines of longitude? Do lines of longitude ever touch each other? Yes. Why or why not? Where? The poles

o Longitudinal lines touch each other as they converge at the poles. o Lines of longitude appear curved and are actually halves of great circles. o Lines of longitude are appear to be vertical lines on a flat map.

Before 1884, there was no special place to begin numbering the lines of longitude; so in 1884 people from about 25 countries got together and decided that they should start with the line of longitude that runs through Greenwich, England, near London, England. England, being the super power of the world at that time was the chosen location for this special line of longitude that would divide the eastern and western hemispheres.

o What is the name of the line of longitude that runs through Greenwich, England? The Prime Meridian is 0 ° longitude.

1.3.5

Extension Information

The five major circles of latitude are, from north to south:

The Arctic Circle (66° 33′ 38″ N) The Tropic of Cancer (23° 26′ 22″ N) The Equator (0° latitude) The Tropic of Capricorn (23° 26′ 22″ S) The Antarctic Circle (66° 33′ 38″ S)

These circles of latitude (excluding the equator) mark the divisions between the five principal geographical zones.

http://www.worldatlas.com/aatlas/imagee.htm map displaying zones

o Moving away from the Prime Meridian, the lines of longitude are labeled in degrees east or west.

How many degrees are there in a circle? 360° o Using the globe and beginning at the Prime Meridian run a finger around the globe

and back to the Prime Meridian. How many degrees would there be if we went half way around the globe? 180°

o Using the globe and beginning at the Prime Meridian, run a finger around the globe (following the equator) stopping half way around the globe. The longitude line that runs through the Pacific Ocean and up through the

Aleutian Islands near Alaska is the 180° line of longitude. What is the name of the 180° line of longitude? The International Date Line

Allison BaileyGrade 3Citrus Elementary SchoolVero Beach, FL

Here's a "rap" I made up to help my third graders understand longitude and latitude while they're doing Mystery Class. They had a blast reading it together, then they drew pictures of "Longitude Dude". Boy! Was he tall and skinny! Maybe next time we'll do fat Latitude Cat or something. It would be neat to have the kids make up their own rhymes.

Enjoy!Allison

That big tall dude called LongitudeHad an attitude about Latitude

He said, "See ya later!" to that old Equator"I dig that Prime Meridian!"

Prime Meridian is the bestHe splits the east up from the west.People say my hero is just a zero,

But the Equator's a zero too!

The Equator thought he was so hotto split hemispheres north and south,

But Prime Meridian goes to the north and south polesWhile Equator hangs around!

Submitted by: Jennifer Otto Email: jaost30@pitt.edu School/University/Affiliation: University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown, Johnstown PA 15907-1200

Date: January 27, 2000

Grade Level(s): 5, 6

Subject(s):

Social Studies/Geography

Duration: A 40-minute class session

Description: This lesson helps fifth graders learn how to find locations using longitude and latitude.

Goals: Students will demonstrate an understanding of the concepts of longitude and latitude.

Objectives: Students will be able to:

give definitions for latitude and longitude. find a location using longitude and latitude. write the appropriate coordinates of a given location. explain the importance of using longitude and latitude. become more aware of locations in the United States. use the Internet to find the longitude and latitude of different cities in the United States.

Materials: Transparencies of maps of the United States that contain longitude and latitude lines. Large United States map. Hand out of the United States map containing longitude and latitude grids and names of

the states.

Procedure:

1.3.15

1. Tell the students that they will be learning how to locate different states and cities by using longitude and latitude. 2. Explain to the students that the latitude lines they will be working with will be expressed as north, because the U.S. is located north of the equator. Explain that the longitude lines they will be working with will be expressed as west, because the U.S. is located west of the Prime Meridian. 3. Have the students write the north west and directions in front of the correct latitude and longitude lines on their maps (this way they won't be confused easily) 4. Show the children how to find the latitude and longitude of Pennsylvania on the large map and have them follow along on their own map (show them that the latitude is 40 degrees north and that the longitude is 80 degrees west) 5. Work along with the students using your overhead and show them how to locate a state by starting with the latitude and longitude coordinates (for example: start with the latitude of 35 degrees and the longitude of 120 degrees and figure out that the answer is California.) 6. Use one more example that you can do with the class. Find what state is located at 45 degrees north and 100 degrees west. The correct answer is South Dakota. 7. Have the students find a partner. Give the class three states and have them find their latitudes and longitudes, and give them three longitudes and latitudes and have them find the states (give the students 5 minutes maximum to complete this) a. Arizona (answer: 35 degrees north and 110 degrees west) b. Wisconsin (answer: 45 degrees north and 90 degrees west) c. North Carolina (answer: 35 degrees north and 80 degrees west) d. 45 degrees north, and 70 degrees west (answer: Maine) e. 40 degrees north and 90 degrees west (answer: Illinois) f. 30 degrees north and 100 degrees west (answer: Texas)

8. Have the class go over the answers with the teacher. Have one group give its answer for the first question, and then show the students how to do this on the transparency. Repeat this until all six answers are given.

9. Have the students go to the website Elementary Education Resources-Social Studies-Geography. Have the students look up latitudes and longitudes of cities around where they live.

Assessment:

1. Hand out the worksheets to each student. One worksheet will be a map and the other will contain 2 questions each with 5 parts.

2. Make sure the students complete this for homework and turn it in the next day.

3. Grade the paper and hand it back to each student so that they can see how well they caught on to the concept of latitude and longitude.

4. I also assessed the children throughout the lesson by having them do the partner work. I walked around the room and saw how well everyone was catching on to the topic that I was teaching them.

CRACK THE CODE

Your Mission

Crack the code to find out where the thieves are taking the loot.

Briefing

Crafty robbers broke into the Royal Geographical Society in London and stole armfuls of priceless maps. Finding them would be hopeless, except that they dropped a scrap of paper with some odd scribbles on it.

At the top is a rhyme that seems to be an instruction from the thieves' boss:

First letters from each place-name read.Spell out the town and come with speed.

But the note doesn't mention any places! All you see are weird combinations of letters and numbers. Luckily, a sharp-eyed geographer peers over your shoulder and says, "Coordinates. How fascinating!" She refreshes your memory on latitude and longitude, those imaginary lines that help us locate places.

The numbers, you realize, are the coordinates for cities all over the planet. (1) Find those places in an atlas or on a map. (2) As you find each place, write its name next to the coordinates. (3) Circle the first letter of each name. (4) Read the letters from top to bottom, and they should spell the name of a city. Now you know where to nab those cartographic crooks.

(Once you think you've cracked the case, you may want to check your answer.)

F A M I L Y - X  F I L E S

1.3.17

Younger Xpeditioners: Find the latitude and longitude of the place where you live. You may need the help from your parents, a teacher, or a librarian.

Older Xpeditioners: Find your birthday coordinates. Use the month for latitude and day for longitude. For example, if your birthday is November 26, your coordinates could be 11°N, 26°E. (You can actually make four sets of coordinates for your birthday, depending on whether you use north or south latitude, or east or west longitude.) Print a world map from the Xpeditions atlas and plot your birthday coordinates. What would it be like to have a party there?

Parents: Depending on how much your children have already learned about latitude and longitude, you may need to brief them a bit. If the concept seems hopelessly complex, you might start with a simple map of a familiar place. Show how the map's grid helps you locate what you're looking for. Then use a globe to help the kids find the Equator and prime meridian.
