People have made plans of the city, the country, and the whole world. These plans which show the land and water are called maps. On maps, north is usually at the top.

Look at the map of the whole world. How can you tell which part means land and which means water? What direction is at the top of the map, at the bottom, at the right side, at the left side, at the top right corner, at the bottom right corner, at the bottom left corner, and at the top left corner?
