MAP YOUR HOME ACTIVITY

Directions:

1. Look at a map or a globe and find the latitude and longitude of where you live.

2. Make a chart by drawing two lines across the sheet of paper to make a large cross. Use
rulers to help you. Mark the ends N, S, E, and W to indicate directions. The
horizontal line represents your latitude. Write the number of the latitude next to the
line. The vertical line represents your longitude. Write the longitude number next to it.

3. Make a dot where the two lines meet and write the name of your city.

4. Use the map and follow your line of latitude east and west to find other places that lie
on that latitude. Write their names on your chart in the order that they occur.

5. Then follow your line of longitude north and south, and write down names of places that
you find.

6. Find four places in each direction.

7. Now you know a few places that are exactly north, south, east, and west from where you
live.
