Latitude and Longitude

Today Miss Szymanik helped us to understand what Latitude and longitude are. We wrote this together as a class.


Latitude is an invisible horizontal line that runs around the Earth from East to West.It begins at the equator where it’s coordinates are 0 degrees.


Longitude is the invisible vertical line that runs around the Earth from North to South. The prime meridian is where its coordinates are 0 degrees.


Latitude and Longitude help us label every place in the world.
