How do you use a compass to find the direction North?
How do you use a compass to find the direction South?
In this activity, you’ll use ‘one step’ as your way to measure and give directions. How can you make sure the steps are all as similar in size as possible?

Hide a treasure somewhere in, near, or outside of your learning space.
Choose a starting point.
Use your compass to figure out the directions to your hidden item, and write them down.
- Example: Take 3 steps north, then 4 steps northeast, then 2 steps south-southwest.
Give your buddy the directions for finding the hidden item.
Have your buddy use a compass and follow the directions to find the treasure.
Take turns and repeat as many times as you like!
