Orienteering Scavenger Hunt Lesson Plan: Middle School

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Orienteering Scavenger Hunt Lesson Plan: Middle School lesson plan also includes:

First, teach your class how to read a compass, and then do the scavenger hunt. This is rather a nice little activity to do. It can be done as part of a unit on orienteering or just for the fun of it as a stand-alone lesson.  The fun activity is putting a series of compass directions in a balloon to make it game-like and seeing how well they can now read a compass and follow where the directions take them. The readings should take them away from and then back to, their original spot. Try this out. It sounds like fun.
