What Is Our Global Position? {anchor chart and journal/notebook activity}

Hi, Owlies!  It's Dana from Prepping for the Primary 

Gridiron!  I wanted to share a global position activity 

I did with my kiddos.  I am hoping it can help yours 

just as much as it did mine!

Global position is one of our 1st grade Social 

Studies AKS.  It's always a tricky concept 

because of how abstract it is.

I decided to make something visual to try 

and help them better understand the size 

concepts of each location/position.

We started with this anchor chart:

We labeled it together using a 

PPT we had previously used.

Then it was their turn!  I printed out

the same type of circles (but small enough

for their journals).  They had to glue them

in their journals and then label them.  

Here are some pics of the finished product:

If you teach global position and think

this activity could help your kiddos,

I hope it helps your kids get a better

understanding of global position!
