To label the compass rose correctly, we need to know the four main cardinal directions. These are North, South, East, and West.
Here is how they are arranged on a standard map or compass:
1.
North is always at the top.
2.
South is at the bottom (opposite North).
3.
East is on the right side.
4.
West is on the left side.
Looking at the worksheet:
- The box at the
top should be labeled
N (for North).
- The box at the
bottom should be labeled
S (for South).
- The box on the
right should be labeled
E (for East).
- The box on the
left should be labeled
W (for West).
For the sentence at the bottom ("A compass rose..."), a simple and correct completion is:
"A compass rose shows directions."
Final Answer:
Top box: N
Bottom box: S
Right box: E
Left box: W
Sentence: A compass rose shows directions.
