Drawing Maps

   Today in class we drew maps, but before that we did nothing about 10 minutes. After the teacher got back in the class room he informed us that we had to draw different things on the map. We had to label the 7 contents and 5 oceans. The 7 continents were Africa, Asia, North America, South America, Australia, Europe, and Antartica. The 5 oceans are Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, Southern Ocean, and Arctic Ocean. We also had to find the Equator, and the Prime Meridian. The equator is an imaginary line drawn around the earth equally distant from both poles, dividing the earth into northern and southern hemispheres and constituting the parallel of latitude 0°. The Prime Meridian is the earth's zero of longitude, which by convention passes through Greenwich, England. The Earth is mainly ocean water and way less land.
