Bonus Challenge: Can you come up with your own memory trick to remember the difference between latitude and longitude? If so, leave a comment with your trick!
I was asking my dad about any tricks and he taught me this poem:
ReplyDelete"Longitude lines go up and down, latitude lines go round and round."
Now remembering this is much easier!
