Picture match - Continents
Geography Resource Description
The "Picture match - Continents" activity is an educational exercise designed to help learners identify and locate the seven continents on a world map. Participants are provided with a list of continents, including Asia, Europe, Oceania, Africa, South America, North America, and Antarctica, and are tasked with placing the correct number that corresponds to each continent in the appropriate box on the map. This activity is an engaging way for students to visually connect names of continents with their geographical placement on a global scale, reinforcing their understanding of world geography.
In a separate reflective question, students are prompted to consider how their lives would differ if they resided in Kenya. To answer this, they need to first identify Kenya's location, which is in East Africa, and then explore its diverse physical features. Kenya is known for its varied landscapes, including savannahs, lakelands, the dramatic Great Rift Valley, and mountain highlands. It's also home to wildlife like lions, elephants, and rhinos. By examining Kenya's geography and environment, students can begin to imagine the distinct cultural, environmental, and lifestyle differences they would experience compared to their current place of residence.
