In this engaging outdoor game, students must determine where a classmate was standing by using compass bearings and clues about what they could see. It’s a fun and interactive way to learn about compass directions and degrees while exploring the outdoors. Students start by choosing a spot in the school or outdoor grounds and recording what they can see at each compass bearing on their sheet. Then, they swap sheets with a classmate and use the information provided to figure out the original location.
This resource includes two sets of differentiated sheets:
- Compass headings (e.g., north, south)
- Degrees
Resources needed per student:
- Differentiated activity sheet
