- Discuss
the use of compasses in everyday life. What situations would indicate
the need for a compass? What careers would utilize a compass on
a day-to-day basis?
- Describe
how to read a compass. Do you understand the degree readings of
a circle and how they relate to the cardinal and intercardinal
directions?
- Complete
a compass course designed by your teacher in which you demonstrate
orienteering skills. Locate a heading on a compass, travel ‘x’
number of paces to an object, create a math problem from the object,
i.e. find the circumference of the tree at this location; ‘fix’
the second heading, walk ‘x’ number of paces to the
next object, etc.
- Create
an orienteering course for your classmates.
