Eurasia. This is the largest
continent on Earth.
Eurasia is so big
that it is divided into two
parts of the world -
Europe and Asia.

It is in Eurasia that our
Homeland - Russia. Russia is located in
both parts of the world - Europe and Asia.

Europe.

On this little piece of land
hosts more than 40 countries, peoples
which speak dozens of languages. The largest island in Europe is Great Britain.
The largest lake in Europe is Ladoga.
The longest river is the Volga.

Asia.

Asia is the largest part of the world,
forms a continent together with Europe
Eurasia. In Asia
There are 54 states.

Representatives of the three main
races of humanity - Mongoloid
(Chinese, Koreans, Japanese), Caucasian
(northerners of Russia) and Negroid (residents
south India).

other marsupials that carry their own
cubs in pouches on their bellies.

continent are still found in the works

ancient Greek scientists. . Great contribution to

exploration of the mainland was contributed by S. Dezhnev,

Antarctica was discovered later than all continents. In the 18th century, navigator James Cook crossed the Antarctic Circle three times, but when he encountered ice, he turned back. And only in 1819 the Russian expedition under the command

F.F. Bellingshausen.

Our group is called "South America".

We received the task: to study the location of the continents, their history, flora and fauna.


South America, with its contours, resembles a triangle; it is located in the Western Hemisphere. This the wettest continent on Earth. It is washed by the waters of the Atlantic, Pacific oceans and the Caribbean Sea.


SOUTH AMERICA

The first explorer of South America was the German geographer and traveler Alexander Humboldt and Charles Darwin. They created the first map of the continent, described the flow of rivers, discovered, studied and described the flora and fauna of the continent.

We received the task: to study the location of the continents, their history, flora and fauna.


Africa – the hottest mainland. It is simultaneously located in all four hemispheres of the planet: Northern, Southern, Western and Eastern.


The first ideas about Africa were gained in the 15th century thanks to the voyage of the Portuguese Vasco da Gama.

TRAVEL ACROSS CONTINUES


Eurasia

The largest continent. Our Russia is located in Eurasia.

Eurasia is divided into 2 parts of the world - Europe and Asia.

Russia is located in both parts of the world.



North America

Most of the continent is occupied by 2 countries -

USA and Canada.

USA Canada


Grand Canyon

Sequoia largest tree on earth


South America

The continent's area is 17.8 million km² (4th place among continents; only slightly larger in area Russia), population - 387,489,196 (2011) people (4th place among continents).


Amazon river

Mountains in South America


Africa

Second in area continent after Eurasia, washed Mediterranean Sea from North, Red- from the northeast, Atlantic Ocean from the west and Indian Ocean from the east and south. Also called Africa part of the world, consisting of mainland Africa and adjacent islands. The area of ​​Africa is 29.2 million km², with islands - about 30.3 million km² , thus covering 6% of the total surface area of ​​the Earth and 20.4% of the land surface.


The longest river in the world

Egyptian pyramids



Australia the smallest continent on earth

State in Southern Hemisphere, occupying continent of the same name, island Tasmania and several other islands Indian And Quiet oceans; is sixth state by area in the world.



Antarctica the continent is located in the very south of the Earth


Antarctica

The Antarctic ice sheet is the largest on our planet.

Due to the harsh climate, Antarctica has no permanent population; several dozen scientific stations are located here.

The average temperature in the winter months (June, July, August) is from −60° to −75 °C, in the summer months (December, January, February) from −30° to −50 °C;

The lowest air temperature reached -89° -93°C.

The area is considered the Earth's pole of cold.

Europe Most of Europe is flat. The highest mountains are the Alps. Among the main rivers of Europe are the Volga, Danube, Dnieper, Don, Rhine, Elbe, etc. European nature is diverse. There are arctic deserts, tundras, coniferous and mixed forests, and steppes.

Slide 5

Asia This is the largest part of the world. Here are the highest mountains on Earth - the Himalayas and the greatest peak - Chomolungma) Everest. The longest and deepest rivers in Asia are the Ob, Irtysh, Yenisei, Lena, Amur, Yellow River, Yangtze, Indus, and Ganges. Most of the territory of our country is located in Asia, including the city of Krasnoyarsk.

Slide 6

Slide 7

North America This continent is located in the northern hemisphere. In its western part stretch the Cordillera mountains. The largest river on the continent, the Mississippi, flows from them. The nature of North America is diverse. There are glaciers, tundra, dense taiga, steppes and deserts.

Slide 8

Animals of North America Alligator The rivers, lakes and swamps of North America are home to the oldest inhabitants of our planet - alligators. Thanks to the streamlined body shape, powerful tail and webbed paws, these ferocious and insatiable predators live freely in the water element. Alligators have strong jaws and sharp teeth, excellent eyesight and hearing. Their roar, like a lion’s, shakes all the animals in the area.

Slide 9

South America This continent has the longest Andes mountains and the deepest river in the world, the Amazon. In the north of the Andes there is the rainiest place in the world, and in the south there is one of the driest deserts in the world - Atacami. South America is the birthplace of potatoes, tomatoes, chocolate and rubber trees.

Slide 10

Fauna of South America Anteater The anteater eats ants and termites, which is why it got its name. He uses his claws (and they are as long as a pencil) to break through the strong wall of the termite mound, stick his muzzle, narrow as a pipe, into the hole and stick out his tongue. The anteater's tongue reaches half a meter. He uses it to lick off termites. It eats up to 30 thousand insects per day. And then he curls up in the shade, covers himself with his bushy tail and sleeps.

Slide 11

Africa Africa is the hottest continent on Earth. It is hot there all year round, there is never frost, and the locals have never seen snow. Here is one of the most beautiful mountains in the world - Kilimanjaro, the top of which is decorated with glaciers. The largest river in Africa is the Nile. The largest desert in Africa and the whole world is the Sahara.

Slide 12

Inhabitants of Africa Giraffe The giraffe is the tallest animal. He eats tree leaves. He grazes as if in a hanging meadow. From above he can clearly see everyone who approaches him. If someone tries to get close to him unnoticed, he may get a hoof in the forehead. Inhabitants of Africa

Slide 13

Australia The smallest continent is Australia. It is located in the southern hemisphere. The nature of Australia has many features that distinguish it from other continents. First of all, these are animals and plants that are not found anywhere else on the globe. There are many marsupials here that carry their young in a pouch on their belly.

And suddenly he sighed as if alive.

And the continents whisper to me:

“You take care, take care of us.”

The groves and forests are in alarm,

dew on the grass is like a tear.

And the springs quietly ask:

“Be a Man, man.

We believe in you, don't lie,

take care of us, take care of us.”

The deep river is sad

“Take care of us, take care of us.”

I look at the globe, the globe,
