In our geography lessons we will be looking at compass points and how to use these to help you move around. People use these compass points to navigate so they don't get lost and find places all around the world.
Task 1

Task 2
Play a game! Ask an adult to hide something in a room in your house. Using the compass points find the hidden object. Make the the wall of you window north so you always know where north is!
