Lat. Long. lines
Write this in your journals:
Latitude: Imaginary lines, or parallels, that run around the belly of the earth. (FAT-itude).
Longitude: Imaginary lines, or meridians, that run from the top to bottom of the earth. (LONG-itude).
Absolute Location: "Grid address". Latitude and Longitude lines cross each other.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Draw two spheres in your notebook. On the first sphere, draw LATITUDE (FAT-itude) lines. On the second sphere, draw LONGITUDE (LONG-itude) lines.
