How do you label parts of a globe?

To label parts of a globe, you can use adhesive labels or stickers to mark specific locations like continents, countries, oceans, or cities. Another option is to use a dry erase marker directly on the globe's surface, or use a pen or pencil on a small label that can be attached to the globe. Make sure to use a labeling method that can be easily removed or updated as needed.
