This medium worksheet sharpens second graders' map and ocean knowledge. Part A's nine fill-in-the-blanks cover the South Pole at the bottom of the globe, Asia having the most people, the Atlantic separating the Americas from Europe and Africa, the seven continents, the newly named Southern Ocean, and how a map key explains symbols.
Part B matches four oceans to clues: the Arctic surrounding the North Pole, the Pacific as the deepest and largest, the Southern Ocean ringing Antarctica, and the Atlantic between the Americas and Africa. Students gain confidence using maps and remembering each ocean's place on Earth.
