  2. MENU • TOOLS FOR TRAVEL • COMPASS INTRO • COMPASS PRACTICE • RESOURCES • ADDITIONAL WEBSITES

  3. READY, STEADY…WAIT! Exploring was more than trailblazing. Proper outfitting and preparation were needed. We will begin with some basic yet important skills.

  4. The Compass show you many things… MOST IMPORTANTLY: • It Provides a Reference Direction ( Magnetic North ) • It helps you keep a course.

  5. THE RED MARK INDICATES MAGNETIC NORTH. THIS FLUER DE LIS WILL ALWAYS POINT TO NORTH. THE YELLOW ARROW INDICATES THE DIRECTION YOU ARE FACING.

  6. YOU FIND YOUR COURSE ON A COMPASS BY READING THE MARKINGS ON THE COMPASS ROSE. THE MARKINGS ARE THE CARDINAL DIRECTIONS

  7. AT THIS MOMENT THE COMPASS SHOWS YOU FACING EAST. WHAT DIRECTION ARE YOU FACING WHEN THE ARROW STOPS? EAST WEST SOUTH NORTH

  8. WHAT ABOUT WHEN THE ARROW STOPS THIS TIME? WHAT DIRECTION ARE YOU FACING? EAST WEST SOUTH NORTH

  13. A screaming baby? Ehhhhhh, probably not… Unless you really liked babies. Try Again

  14. Reference Books? I like your train of thought, but… They’re heavy and take up space. Try Again

  15. Hmmmmm….. A covered wagon is nice, but not necessarily important. Try Again

  16. Correct! A chart!

  17. The Lantern is useful at night, But we’ll travel during the day time. Try Again

  18. Gold coins, or currency? They are certainly useful at times, but unnecessary weight for an explorer. Try Again

  19. TRY THAT ONE AGAIN…

  20. GOOD JOB Explorer!

  21. GOOD JOB! Both SW and 225 are correct. Just Extend the Yellow line farther To see this is true.

  22. TRY THAT AGAIN!
