This Term we are studying

GEOGRAPHY

We will be learning about the world and where we fit into it.

This week I would like you to view the two attached videos that will give you an informed overview of our

WORLD

Your tasks for this week:

1. Print off the world map and colour each of the seven continents in seven different colours. Then colour the oceans ( be careful not colour too hard). Shading is recommended.

2. Challenge: Before moving onto your 3rd task there is a unique continent missing from our world map. Yes that's right, Antarctica. Do some research on it's location and draw it on yourself to the World Map.

3. On a separate sheet of lined paper, create a mini poster. Head it - The World. Then list all the seven continents and the five different oceans, each underneath one another.

This week you need to figure out which equation matches the problems, then shade the box of the correct answer. Make sure you read the answers carefully before shading because I have tried to trick you.

Good luck!
