-
Simplify the explanation of the phases of the moon
-
Study the phenomena of revolution and rotation, and their effects on the cycle of seasons
-
Make a comparative study of the solar and lunar eclipses
-

-
Highlight the need to conserve forest and wildlife with the help of the “Food Pyramid”
The Aid also consists of additional aluminum rings, which can be used to show latitudes, longitudes, and the axis of the earth and the poles.
The base of the Teaching Aid can be used to teach the concept of Directions: North, South, East and West.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to state that this Teaching Aid created by Dhurat is a mine of information to students of Geography.
