Looking at Globes

This afternoon, students had a chance to work in small groups to see what they could learn about globes.  Here is a list of what they noticed and discovered:

• The bumpy parts on the globe represent mountains.
• Some globes show mountains in the oceans!
• All the coloured parts are different countries.
• Blue on a globe means water.
• Everyone found Canada and Saskatchewan.  Some groups found Mexico and Jamaica too!





• The North Pole and the Arctic is at the top of the globe and the South Pole and Antarctic is at the bottom of the globe.
