Where Are We in the World? Continents, Oceans, Lattitude and Longitude.

This engaging Geography lesson introduces essential map skills through a clear, well‑paced sequence that builds students’ global awareness and confidence. Pupils learn to identify continents and oceans, understand latitude and longitude, and apply these skills to accurately locate London on a world map. The lesson is deliberately designed to reduce copying and increase thinking, with structured tasks, frequent checks for understanding, and strong geographical vocabulary throughout. Ideal for the start of KS3, this resource works equally well as a first Geography lesson or within a map skills unit, and is suitable for observations, mixed‑ability classes, and non‑specialist teachers. Clear instructions and ready‑to‑use slides make it easy to teach with minimal preparation.
