How to find a location on Earth?

Last week, our students learnt how to find a location on Earth using the coordinate system. Parallels and meridians form a grid. Any country or territory can be located on a map if de use its parallels and meridians, which show us the latitude and longitude.

Would you like to know the coordinates of our highschool? Here the are:
Latitude: 36.729386 North.
Longitude: 4.427428 West.

You can get the coordinates of any place on Google Maps.
