Using a compass rose on a map is really helpful when you want to find your way! Here’s how to use it:

1. Understanding the Compass Rose:

   • The compass rose shows the main directions: North (N), South (S), East (E), and West (W).
   • Some compass roses also show directions in between, like Northeast (NE) and Southwest (SW).

2. Finding Your Direction:

   • First, turn the map so that North on the compass rose points to the top.
   • Look at where you are on the map and see how it fits with the compass rose.

3. Using Degrees:

   • You can also use numbers to describe directions, called degrees.
   • For example, North is at $0^\circ$, East is at $90^\circ$, South is at $180^\circ$, and West is at $270^\circ$.

By using these tips, you'll be good at finding your way around with a map!
