Using the compasss

Being able to read a map using grid references is a very useful skill. But as soon as it gets dark, misty or you lose your way, you need to know which way to turn your map so the features you see on paper are in the same direction as the features in real life. To do this you need a compass and you also need to know about compass directions!
In this lesson you will learn about the points of a compass and how you can read them to find your way.
