This challenging worksheet asks second graders to think like real geographers. Part A's multiple choice questions check which continent sits south of Europe (Africa), which ocean lies between Africa and Australia, whether Earth's surface is mostly water, and the home continent of kangaroos. Students must picture the globe in their heads to choose correctly.

Part B's fill-in-the-blanks introduce trickier facts: the Atlantic as second-largest ocean, North and South America as separate continents, cartographers as map scientists, the equator splitting Africa, and the Eastern Hemisphere holding Asia, Europe, and Africa. The result is sharper world knowledge and a stronger geography vocabulary.
