Bearings and Navigation
Students will apply bearings to solve navigation problems involving distances and directions.
Key Questions
- Analyze how errors in bearing measurements can impact the accuracy of a calculated position.
- Construct a multi-leg journey problem and determine the final displacement using bearings.
- Justify the importance of precise bearing measurements in real-world navigation scenarios.

Planning templates for Mathematics
5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
