Compass

This month, one of the Outdoor Hour Challenges was for magnets and compass. I decided to split this up, so we ended up doing a compass activity.

In her e-book she provided a note-booking page to map out your neighborhood. Instead of neighborhood we mapped out our back yard. We stood in the middle and found objects that point to North, South, East and West. He took a picture of the items and we then printed them out to make our map.
I also used the compass on my phone, since I do not have a real compass but hopefully, soon, the mail should be bringing me one.
