A. Approach
1. Prayer
Good morning class!
Good Morning Teacher!

someone lead the prayer? Okay Teacher. Let`s put ourselves in

Okay teacher.
B. Presentation
1. Simple Discussion
Once again, what is our lesson for
today?
Our lesson for today is all about
Imaginary Lines of the Globe
teacher.
Thank you. Before we start, I want
you sit properly and listen
attentively on my discussion. Can
you lend me your ears children?

Let`s start.
Yes teacher.
I want you to look at the picture.
What do you observe?

Teacher, the globe is divided and

Very good. labeled into 4 parts.

The Earth is, almost, but not quite,

a sphere that rotates around its
axis. Scientists call this shape
a spheroid or ellipsoid. If we draw
a line passing through the center
of the Earth along its rotational
axis, the line would pass through
the North and the South Pole.

In the picture, do you see lines

that passes through the center of
the globe?
Yes teacher.

What are they?

Very good. Equator and Prime Meridian

Okay, let`s define those words.
Let`s start with the equator.
Can you read the definition?

The Equator is an imaginary line

perpendicular to this axis. It is
equidistant from the North and South
Poles, and divides the globe into the
Northern Hemisphere and the
Dividing Earth into Hemisphere Southern Hemisphere.
Most locations on the Equator
experience consistently
high temperatures throughout the
year. They also experience at
least 12 hours of daylight every
day during the year. On the
Equinoxes
– September and March – the sun
is directly overhead the Equator,
resulting in almost exactly 12 hour
days and 12 hour nights.

The Equator passes through 14

countries, including Uganda,
Kenya, Somalia, Indonesia,
Ecuador, Colombia, and Brazil.

There are imaginary lines of the

globe: the latittude and longitude.
What are those again?

Great! Latitude and Longitude teacher.

Often called parallels, circles
of latitude or simple latitude.
Can you read the definition.

Latitudes are imaginary circles

parallel to the Equator. They are
named after the angle created by a
line connecting the latitude and the
center of the Earth, and the line
Latitudes specify the north-south connecting the Equator and the
position of a location on the globe. center of the Earth.
Locations in the Northern
Hemisphere are identified by
northern latitudes and are
assigned a suffix of N for north.
Southern Hemisphere locations,
on the other hand, are on southern
latitudes and are assigned a suffix
of S for south.

The Equator represents 0°

latitude, while the North and
South Poles represent 90° North
and 90° South latitudes.

Earth's Axis Is Imaginary

In astronomy, an axis refers to the
imaginary line that an object,
usually a planet, rotates around.

Earth's rotational axis is an

imaginary straight line that runs
through the North and South Pole.

Looking at the left side of the

picture, are those words familiar?

Very good! Yes teacher. Those are five special

lines of latitude.
In addition to the Equator, there
are four other major latitudes that
are usually found on maps and
globes.

First is the Arctic Circle.

Please read its definition.

The Arctic Circle is the latitude 66°

On the other hand, the Antarctic 34′ North. All locations falling North of

latitude are said to be in the
Antarctic Circle.

Places in both the Arctic and

Antarctic circles experience
extreme weather, and experience
the Midnight Sun.

Another special lines of latitude

are the Tropic of cancer and
Tropic of Capricorn.
May I request everyone to please
read the definition.
 The latitude 23° 26′ North is also
known as the Tropic of Cancer. It
marks the northern-most position on
the Earth, where the Sun is directly
overhead at least once a year. This
happens during the June Solstice,
when the Earth’s Northern
Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun.

The Tropic of Capricorn is the

latitude that lies at 23° 26′ South of
the Equator. It is the southern-most

Equator. Half of a longitudinal
circle is known as a Meridian.
Meridians are perpendicular to
every latitude.

Today, the meridian line through

Greenwich, England is considered
as the reference point for
longitudes. This line is also known
as the Prime Meridian.
What is Prime Meridian?
Can someone read the definition?

The Prime Meridian is set as 0°

longitude and it divides the Earth into
the Eastern and the Western
Hemisphere. All the other longitudes
are measured, and named after the

Is everything tackled on the

discussion are all clear?

1.1. Simple Q and A

So let`s see if you really
understand the lesson. Let`s have
a review.
What are the major imaginary
lines of the globe?

Very good!
Yes teacher.
Next, what are the 5 special lines
of latitude?

Great!
Seems like you`re ready for our
test. Latitude and Longitude teacher.

Why are there imaginary lines
on the globe? The five special lines of latitude are
