Finding Places on a Globe Worksheet – 3rd Grade Geography & Maps

The Finding Places on a Globe Worksheet gives third grade students focused, no-prep practice with geography. It is a print-and-go social studies page that fits easily into a mini-lesson, a center rotation, or a quick review day.

Learning objective: Students will practice geography and apply the skill independently by completing each task on the page.

Why it works: Practice like this gives students a chance to try geography on their own after you teach it. Because the page is quick to complete and easy to review, it fits into almost any part of the school day.

What's included:

• 1 printable worksheet page

• Clear, student-friendly directions

• 2 practice sections (Part A to Part B)

• Answer key (1 page)

• Cover page

How it's organized: The page opens with these directions: "Write the word from the word bank that names each lettered part of the globe." The practice is split into 2 parts, so students can work through it in clear steps.

Grade level: Designed for third grade students. It also works well for second grade and fourth grade students who need extra practice or a fresh review.

How to use it: Use it for whole-group practice, small-group instruction, independent work, centers, morning work, homework, or an emergency sub plan.

Answer key: An answer key is included, so you can check work quickly or let students self-correct.

Teaching tips and variations:

• Project the page and solve one or two items as a class before students work on their own.

• Model the first item together, then let students finish the rest independently.

• Keep a few copies in your early finisher bin for independent review.
