Orienteering is a physically active outdoor experience that develops map navigation skills. In collaboration with school teachers in Massachusetts, Navigation Games has created orienteering-based curricula that can be used anywhere, for all ages. In this workshop, participants will play some games, and get to know our introductory school orienteering curriculum. You will come away with lesson plans, and with ideas for bringing orienteering to your students.
