Latitude
The North Pole is at 90° N
The South Pole is at 90° S
The equator is at 0° latitude. It is neither north nor south. It is at the center between north and south poles.
40° N is the 40° line of latitude north of the equator.
40° S is the 40° line of latitude south of the equator.

Assessment:
Use a paper plate to create a model of the globe. Draw and label:
•equator
•prime meridian
•latitude lines including the degrees
•longitude lines including the degrees
•locate 20°S, 70°W and label it with a red dot
