This Grade 5 worksheet gives extra hemisphere practice for Grade 5 students. Learners apply latitude and longitude clues to decide whether continents, oceans, and cities sit in the Northern, Southern, Eastern, or Western Hemisphere. Fill-in-the-blank and matching exercises connect parallels and meridians with real places like Asia, Europe, and South America for stronger geography skills. Grade 5 students master coordinates.
Style:
Latitude and Longitude
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. South America lies mostly in the Southern and Western Hemispheres.
2. A place at 20 degrees north latitude is in the Northern Hemisphere.
3. A place at 110 degrees west longitude is in the Western Hemisphere.
4. Asia is mostly in the Northern and Eastern Hemispheres.
5. Europe is in the Northern Hemisphere and partly in the Eastern Hemisphere.
6. The line at 180 degrees longitude is on the opposite side of Earth from the Prime Meridian.
7. Cities at 5 degrees south latitude are still close to the Equator.
8. A globe shows that latitude lines look like horizontal rings around Earth.
9. A globe shows that longitude lines look like vertical slices from pole to pole.
Part B: Matching
Match each item on the left to the correct answer on the right.
1. Match each item to its correct answer.
