Lesson 2 : Oceans and Continents

In this lesson, you will explore the major oceans and continents of the Earth and understand how they shape life on our planet.

🌊 Introduction: Oceans and Continents 🌍

Our planet Earth is unique because it is made up of vast oceans and huge landmasses called continents. Oceans cover nearly three-fourths of the Earth’s surface, while continents occupy the remaining part. Each ocean and continent has its own name, location, and features, and together they shape the geography of our world.

Oceans influence climate, weather, and trade, while continents provide habitats, resources, and cultures for human life. Understanding their distribution helps us see how nature and people are connected across the globe.
