What children learn in Level 10
- Oceans are huge bodies of salty water. Earth has five oceans, and they cover most of our planet!
- The Pacific Ocean is the biggest. It's west of North America and South America.
- The Atlantic Ocean is east of North America. Georgia's beaches are on the Atlantic!
- The Indian Ocean is south of Asia, between Africa and Australia.
- The Arctic Ocean is at the top of the world, near the North Pole. The Southern Ocean goes all the way around Antarctica.
- Your turn! Sort them. Is it a continent or an ocean?
- Try it with a grown-up! Taste a tiny pinch of salt in a cup of water. Ocean water is salty like that, but you should never drink it!
