Biblical principle: We are a blest nation in Christ
Genesis 10:32

These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations,
in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth
after the flood.

The words, "And by these were the nations of the earth divided in
the earth after the flood," prepare the way for the description of
that event which led to the division of the one race into many
nations with different languages.
1. Speaking Project
USA and The United Kingdom location

The students will do a research on these countries. According to this, they will present what they
found out and find a bible verse to bless the country. But before this, they will prepare a small
poster that will contain items related to their investigation.
As a guide, they will fill this chart in:

Country (The U.K / The

U.S.A.)

Continent
Climate
Landforms
Bodies of water
Natural resources

 Our Location
Maps and globes are used to
locate communities. Globes
are models of Earth, and
theses are often made with
the Equator imaginary line
that is halfway between the
North Pole and the South
Pole (Northern Hemisphere
Southern Hemisphere).
 Our Location

On the other hand, there is

another imaginary line that goes
from the North Pole to the South
Pole (Western Hemisphere
Eastern Hemisphere). With
these geographic tools we are
able to locate the 5 continents.
BIBLICAL PRINCIPLE: THE TRUTH (John 8:32)
