Topic: The Geographic grid KQ2: How do geographers describe where things are. They use relative location or exact location to be able to get from point a to point b as fast as possible LO1: Define Geographic grid, latitude, Longitude, parallels and meridians. Longitude: The lines that range from north to south on the map Geographic grid: Creates a grid using the lines of longitude and lines of latitude Latitude: The lines ranging from east to west Parallels: The lines that run east to west parallel to the equator Meridian: The line the splits the earths in half going north to south LO2: Identify the major significant lines of latitude and longitude Longitude: Prime Meridian,                                                                                     ...

Topic: Interpreting maps KQ:2 How do geographers describe where things are. They use relative location or exact location to be able to get from point a to point b as fast as possible LO1: Define, Map, Scale, projection, meridian, longitude, parallel, latitude, prime meridian. Map Scale:  The distance on a map between 2 points. Meridian: A circle that consists of purely longitude lines. Longitude. The lines on the map going from northern hemisphere to Southern Hemisphere Parallel: A set of lines that will never intersect at any point. Latitude: The set of lines that go from the western  and the eastern hemisphere Prime Meridian: The vertical line that splits the earth into eastern and Western Hemisphere. LO2: Understand the role of map scale and projection in interpreting maps. Map scale can help determine the distance between two points in correlation to the map. For example it goes from 5000 feet to 500 feet.

Introduction to maps KQ2:How do geographers describe where things are. Answer: Geographers can use physical maps to pick out different mountain ranges and regions, they can use political maps to pick out countries or states. Lastly, they can use thematic maps to figure out different statistics of the areas. LO1: Define Cartography, absolute location, and relative location. Answer: Cartography: The science of drawing or practicing maps
