  2. Estimate = …………° Points = ……… Estimate = …………° Points = ……… Estimate = …………° Points = ……… Estimate = …………° Points = ……… Estimate = …………° Points = ……… Total Points __________

  3. Compass points

  4. Bearings – The Key Points Bearings are a measure of direction taken from North. Bearings are always measured in a clockwise direction Bearings are always written in 3 figures

  5. Example 1: What is the compass direction from Belfast to Omagh? ……………………What is the bearing from Belfast to Omagh? …………………… Omagh Belfast North

  6. Example 2: What is the compass direction from Omagh to Newry? ……………………What is the bearing from Omagh to Newry? …………………… Omagh North Newry

  7. Example 3: What is the compass direction from Omagh to Sligo? ……………………What is the bearing from Omagh to Sligo? …………………… Omagh North Sligo
