This week we will discuss ch-3, Models of the Earth. Students will learn to find locations on Earth, mapping Earth’s surface, and the various types of maps. Students’ will learn how latitude and longitude, Earth’s magnetism, and the Global Positioning System are used to find locations on Earth. We will also discuss how cartographers obtain information to create maps, describe map projections, and explains how to use a compass rose, a legend, and scales.
