Maps Lesson; Cardinal Directions Craft: Make your Own compass; K/1 classroom: Kids were given a foam circle, four small circular label stickers, and construction paper. Their directions were to cut out a smaller circle to place in the middle of their foam circle and write their name inside it. They then placed a label sticker on the north end, the south end, the east end, and the west end. They wrote N for the north label, E for the East and so forth. They wrote small phrases that would help them remember the directions and placed them beside the corresponding direction. Ex. Phrase "Never Eat Sour Watermelon". The Never is placed by the N, the Eat by the E, etc. The kids loved making these and they love saying the phrases to help them remember!
