HIGH SCHOOL LESSON PLAN
DESCRIPTION:
These plans were developed together with Amanda Klein at Lincoln-Sudbury High School, and presented at MAHPERD 2018. Navigation Games authors include Ethan Childs, Cristina Luis and Barb Bryant.
AUTHORSHIP & ACKNOWLEDGMENTS:
Erin Schirm developed and shared with us orienteering lesson plans for middle school. The boundary run and game, as
well as the gathering in response to a signal, were based on his first lesson plan. Erin’s approach of using games and
emphasizing communication has been an inspiration.
The Arithmetic Grid O game was taken from the Counting Cones activity in British Orienteering’s Tri-O packet.
Animal-O: Andrea Schneider of Orienteering USA and David Yee observed animal orienteering in Europe and brought
back reports, and our first animal O activities were based on those reports.
