Isolines are lines drawn to link places that share a common value. The prefix ‘iso’ is a Greek word meaning equal, so an isoline must be a line joining equal points. For example, a line drawn on a map to join places that are of the same height above sea level is called a contour. The isobar, is also an isoline. It is a line that joins places with the same atmospheric pressure. You may have seen this on weather maps in newspapers and TV weather forecasts. Apart from contours and isobars, there are more isolines.
Can you spot them in this word grid? How many you can find?
