When students start 7th grade, they have no idea of where countries and continents are located. When given a globe, many students are not even able to find the United States. These globes will help me teach them to find their home country as well as discover relationships and proportions of different places. How far did Europeans have to travel to reach the US? How large is Africa compared to other continents? All of these questions can be answered beautifully when students have the opportunity to manipulate a globe and find answers themselves. This project will help me address the following social studies standard: SS.6-8.WGGS.27
