- Sketch, label and color the 2 Great Circle Route maps on p. 6. They are similar but note the differences between them,
- Cut out and color representations of 2 ships and 2 planes appropriate in size to your Great Circle maps.
- Place them upon your map, you ask? Yes! With glue? Perhaps, yes!
A disembodied hand and wrist? One that moves to and fro? If we have the time!
- Knowing the type of route on which you must place the ship and plane
is the key to the lesson.
