1.
The World is
Round
2.
But we want
a map on a flat sheet of paper
3.
Mercator
4.
To flatten the
World
5.
we could stretch
it…
6.
and stretch it…..
7.
and stretch it…..
8.
But watch
9.
AFRICA
10.
11.
12.
13.
What has happened?
14.
The shapes of
the countries are messed up
15.
For instance
16.
Britain
17.
and India
18.
19.
Seem to be
the same size
20.
but India is
actually 13 x the size of Britain
21.
So let’s try
another way of flattening the World
22.
Take an Orange
23.
Mark it like
this
24.
Cut along the
lines
25.
Cut one side
open
26.
Eat the fruit
27.
Flatten out the
peel
28.
Here is an
orange peel map of the World
29.
Let’s try another
way
30.
Collapse the world
31.
onto an icosahedron
32.
Buckymap
33.
Shout out the
numbers of the Continents
34.
Which number is
South America? 1 2 3 4 6 5 7 South America
35.
Which number is
Australia? 1 2 3 4 6 5 7 South America Australia
36.
Which number is
Europe? 1 2 3 4 6 5 7 South America Australia Europe
37.
Which number is
North America? 1 2 3 4 6 5 7 South America Australia North America Europe
38.
Which number is
Asia? 1 2 3 4 6 5 7 South America Australia North America Europe Asia
39.
Which number is
Africa? 1 2 3 4 6 5 7 South America Australia North America Africa Europe Asia
40.
Which number is
Antarctica? 1 2 3 4 6 5 7 South America Australia Antarctica North America Africa Europe Asia
41.
When you get
home cut out your buckymap
42.
and make a
Buckyglobe
43.
44.
Label South America
on your map
45.
Label Australia on
your map
46.
Label Europe on
your map
47.
Label North America
on your map
48.
Label Asia on
your map
49.
Label Africa on
your map
50.
Label Antarctica on
your map
51.
Let’s take an
icosahedron
