How many continents are there?

Explanation:
Continents are the large landmasses that make up Earth's major regions. In the usual fourth‑grade Virginia Studies approach, there are seven: Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Europe, North America, South America, and Australia (often called Oceania when including many Pacific islands). This setup helps students learn how the world is divided on maps and understand where places are in relation to one another. Some people group Europe and Asia together as Eurasia, which would make six continents, but the common teaching keeps them separate to highlight the distinct geographies and cultures of each continent.
