Elementary Map and Compass Instruction.
Larson, Elston F.
The purpose of this booklet is to help teachers, scoutmasters, and other group leaders give elementary map and compass instructions in a manner that is both simple and fun. It is intended to be a guide for a training course on this subject. Much of the text is taken directly from an actual training course and is written in the manner of a teacher talking to his students. The teacher, therefore, can give a part of his presentation by reading directly from this guide. Necessary materials and a setup of the instruction area are given. The instructor's presentation includes: The Map; The Compass; Directions; Orienting a Compass; Measurement; Competitive Compass Game; Combining Use of Map, Compass and Measurements; Method of Getting the Compass Degree Reading from the Map; and Practice Course Using Map and Compass.
